Fisherman’s Son Missing as Storms Lash Preah Sihanouk

Preah Sihanouk: Authorities are searching for a 14-year-old boy off the coast of Preah Sihanouk’s Stung Hav District. He was fishing with his father when their boat capsized in a storm on Tuesday. His 48-year-old father managed to swim to safety. Stung Hav is about 25km northeast of Sihanoukville.
