A violent clash between rival youth gangs in Poipet escalated from machete attacks to gunfire and a grenade explosion, leading to the arrest of 10 suspects, including a man police identify as the gunman who shot his girlfriend in Poipet back in June. A Sig Sauer P365 pistol was also recovered from a pond.

The operation was led by Cambodia's CID, a national-level criminal investigation unit that handles serious or high-profile cases across the country, often working alongside provincial police forces.
