Letting out a few healthy screams proved to be the right choice for two victims who were being held up in Phnom Penh’s Prampi Makara district on Sunday.

Claiming six muggers pulled a gun and demanded $3,000 while they were walking on the railroad, the duo let out wails that drew nearby officers.

Two suspects were apprehended at the scene, and three more were grabbed after darting into a gambling shop. Both bikes were confiscated and the gang was hauled in.
