SLEEPING MAN CAUSES HIGHWAY BROUHAHA
Police say a drunkard in Svay Rieng town took a nap in the middle of the road Thursday evening, causing havoc among drivers and restless neighbours disturbed by the sound of barking dogs. Officials said the man’s antics disturbed neighbours so much that they just had to come and see what was causing the commotion. Police said the man was driving his motorbike home from a party. But he was so deeply intoxicated that he pulled over to sleep in the road. Passing motorists stopped and tried to wake the man up, but he slept through their poking and prodding. Finally, amid a cacophony of canine exhortations, police arrived and took the man home.
