Third time was no charm for a pair of motorbike thieves. Police in Battambang town arrested a 23-year-old man and a 21-year-old woman on Saturday who allegedly stole three bikes in a week.

On alert after receiving complaints of two thefts last week, police jumped into action when a villager reported a stolen moto, and caught the duo driving it out of town.

A search of their rental house turned up the other two stolen bikes. NOKORWAT
