Punch-throwing trio throw in the towel

Three burglars with a penchant for pummeling their victims were picked up by Phnom Penh police on Monday evening.

After reports of their latest crime – which ended with one victim being injured – police launched an investigation into the trio, quickly locating the men.

The police scared the burglars stiff with a few well-placed warning shots, before closing in and arresting the pugilistic possession pilferers, confiscating a motorcycle and a gun.
