Rat-Trap Nets Fisherman


A Cambodian who set out to catch fish with car batteries and electrodes got a taste of his own medicine when he stepped on an electric rat-trap and died.

The Kampuchea Thmey newspaper said on Thursday that fisherman Roeun Bo, 36, died instantly when he stumbled into a mesh of bare wires hooked up to a large truck battery.
