Phnom Penh Post - Trashy garbagemen turn to life of crime
Two Phnom Penh rubbish collectors who apparently felt their pay was rubbish decided to supplement their income by robbing someone on their route on Sunday.

Seizing their chance, they snatched the machine, but were spotted by the homeowner.
Her cries for help were heeded and the hapless thieves were arrested while the tool was returned.
