Guess who’s coming to dinner: a stabby drunk

A man in Kampot town gave harmless drunks everywhere a bad name when he stabbed a man four times on Monday for the sin of not inviting him to have a drink.

The 28-year-old victim was drinking wine with a friend at home when a man – seemingly smashed – approached and castigated the two for not inviting him, according to police, who say the man left the scene and returned with a machete and a “metal item”. Police are on the lookout for the suspect. KOH SANTEPHEAP
