One boy died and another was severely injured after an unexploded B-40 rocket they were playing with detonated in Boeng Daeng village, in Kampong Cham’s Stung Trang district, on Monday.

 

District police chief Pak Cheat said that the victim, Yorn Meng, 16, had picked up the unexploded ordnance from the rice fields where he was laying mouse traps with his friends. The group brought the rocket back to the village, where Meng started to strike at it with an axe.

 

Meng died immediately at the scene, while Khlok Chhveit, 11, who was nearby when the ordnance exploded, sustained severe injuries on the left side of his body.
