A Phnom Penh nightclub security guard evidently decided the customer is not always right when he took the law into his own hands on Sunday night.

The club’s patron, 35, drank himself silly before exiting the Daun Penh venue and cursing the guard, 30, who then pistol-whipped the victim and shot at the ground near his feet.

The guard fled the scene and the victim was sent to hospital. Residents complained that there are regular fights, arguments and shootings at the locale, disturbing their sleep. KAMPUCHEA THMEY
