Phnom Penh Post - Snatchers go wobbly at just the wrong moment
Another bag-snatching duo found themselves undone by dodgy driving on Friday.
The pair grabbed the bag of a 54-year-old American woman as she walked through Phnom Penh’s Daun Penh district.
Speeding up to make their escape, the pair crashed into a car, fell off and found themselves at the mercy of a mob, which handed them over to police.
The bag was returned and the men, one of whom was found with a sword, were sent to the commune police station.
