Greed gets the better of hotel worker criminal

A Sihanoukville hotel worker-turned-thief was arrested on Saturday after clearly never having learned any lessons about subtlety when it comes to skimming cash off the top.

The blatant burglar decided to rob his own boss in two parts, managing in his first heist to snatch a whopping $3,000.

He still wasn’t satisfied, however, and with his boss on high alert, he returned for another $330, getting caught in the act and sent to the slammer.
