It was like taking an iPad from a 5-year-old. Actually, it was exactly that.

But as easy as it was to snatch the coveted Apple product from the tot’s hands outside his Tuol Kork district home on Saturday, the prize wasn’t long for the having.

When the boy and his mother began to shout for help, police and neighbours quickly chased down the suspects.

Caught, the iPad went back to the tiny victim and the duo who’d stolen it were sent to court.
