Because she was angry because of the argument with her husband, when she got home, Ms. Hoa locked the door, took the gas tank from the kitchen to the bedroom and released the gas to commit suicide. Seeing his wife suddenly leave and not come to work, Mr. Manh asked for leave to go home and found the door locked from the inside. Feeling that something had happened, Mr. Manh climbed onto the roof, pried open the metal roof in the kitchen and climbed into the house and discovered the incident.

The gas explosion caused minor burns to both Mr. and Mrs. Hoa (Mr. Manh suffered 15% burns, Ms. Hoa suffered 5%), the house's aluminum and glass doors were broken, part of the bed mattress was burned, and the kitchen roof was broken.

Upon receiving the news, Uong Bi City leaders directed the functional forces to be present at the scene to investigate the cause of the incident; at the same time, directed the People's Committee of Vang Danh Ward to visit and encourage the victim's family.
