Two burglars felt the weight of their crime in the form of a rock thrown through their car window as they were escaping a robbery on Monday in the Sen Sok district of Phnom Penh.

After returning home and noticing missing money and jewellery, a local homeowner spotted the duo fleeing and called for help.

A security guard managed to toss a stone at their vehicle and police, who are still searching for the suspects, found the damaged ride abandoned nearby.
