Poorly tossed brick lands man in brink

A man had bad intentions and even worse aim when he allegedly threw a brick at a rival on Tuesday but hit a child instead in Kandal province’s Koh Thom district.

Trying to harm a sugarcane vendor with whom he had a grudge, the man chucked the chunk of masonry, which ricocheted and struck a child standing nearby.

Cops found him later and sent him to the slammer, taking the brick as evidence.
