An elderly woman was cow-jacked on Tuesday in Pursat’s Krakor district. Police said the woman and her great grandson had taken her heifer to a pond to wash it, when the 32-year-old suspect appeared and swiped the animal as she napped afterward.

Despite what was no doubt a rather slow speed getaway, the cow’s owner was in no condition to give chase, so her great grandson shouted for help, drawing neighbours to their aid. KAMPUCHEA THMEY
