YCHofficial 5,293 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Cambodia – Three people died in a well in eastern Cambodia after trying to rescue a dog that had fallen inside, police said on Sunday. The tragedy unfolded in a remote area of Kratie province on Saturday when Say Phalla, 25, climbed down the 10-meter-deep (32 feet) well after his pet plunged into the water. “Say Phalla used a rope to climb down the well to save his dog but suffocated due to a lack of oxygen at the bottom, disappearing in the water,†local police chief Men Bunthoeun told AFP by telephone. A male neighbor, followed by Phalla’s 64-year-old mother, then climbed down in a desperate attempt to save him and the pet, but they also passed out. It was unclear how the dog, which also died, crossed the barrier encircling the well. Bunthoeun said authorities retrieved the dead bodies after pumping water out from the well upon being alerted to the incident by other neighbors.
