Theft just wasn’t enough for an Oddar Meanchey man who decided to set his rival neighbour’s house on fire to vent his frustration.
Police say the 19-year-old was feuding with his fellow Anlong Veng villagers before he came to their home on Monday, nabbed 50,000 riel, or about $12, and put a match to their walls – all while they were inside.
The blaze was quickly extinguished and alerted authorities found the apoplectic arsonist in the next village before they took him to a holding cell to wait for his day in court.
