Tang is alleged to have murdered missing San Francisco Uber driver Piseth Chhay in May 2017, dismembered his body, and then fled to his homeland of Cambodia, the FBI said. The remains of Chhay, a husband and father of two, were found in a Hayward warehouse where Tang worked in June of 2017.

In November 2017, a felony arrest warrant was issued for Tang in Alameda County after he was charged with murder.

A second arrest warrant for Tang was issued in March 2019 in U.S. District Court in San Francisco after Tang was charged with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.

Tang also has used a number of aliases: Bob Tov, Peou Tang, Robert Tang, Kheang Kheng Tov, and Peou Tov.

The FBI said Tang should be considered armed and dangerous. Anyone with information about the case was asked to contact the local FBI office, the nearest American Embassy or Consulate, or submit a tip online at tips.fbi.gov.
