Woman lucky to get away with bruised ego, Police blotter, Phnom Penh Post

A 19-year-old girl was forcibly relieved of her motorbike after being hit in the head by a motorcyclist in Kratie province on Wednesday morning.

The girl was reportedly riding her bike alone when she was stopped by the motorcyclist, who struck her on the head and face, then snatched her vehicle, leaving his crummy motorbike behind.

Thankfully, the victim only suffered minor injuries, but the police are resolved to look for the moto snatcher.
