Theiving trio thwarted on their second strike

One Pursat province resident arrived home to find some unexpected – and unwelcome – house guests on Tuesday evening: a trio of burglars.

The victim immediately contacted the police, who arrested all three. A search of the thieves revealed that this was not their first rodeo.

As well as a bag that belonged to the victim, the thieves were also in possession of another bag, which they confessed to having already stolen that evening from another family.
