On January 1, Vinh City Police said that after a period of investigation, the Investigation Police Agency had prosecuted Nguyen Anh Tu (born in 1986) for "Illegal possession and use of military weapons"; Ho Viet Cong (born in 1993) for "Illegal use of military weapons" and Truong Quang An (born in 1978) for "Intentionally causing injury"..
According to initial records, on the night of December 3, 2018, Le Anh Tuan (born in 1986, residing in Vinh City) organized a party at a restaurant in Hung Dung Ward (Vinh City) and invited many friends to attend.

At the party, Nguyen Anh Tu and Pham Trung Hieu were two guests who had a personal conflict that led to a fight.
Tu immediately pulled out a pistol and threatened to shoot Hieu. Ho Viet Cong, who was sitting at the same table, rushed in to stop him, grabbed the gun, and fired 5 shots into the ceiling, causing many people at the restaurant to run away.
In order to erase all traces, the partygoers picked up bullet casings and deleted the restaurant's security camera data. After cleaning up the scene, the group made an appointment to meet at a coffee shop in Nghi Phu commune (Vinh city) to reconcile.
At the coffee shop, the group continued to argue, Le Anh Tuan was seriously injured by Truong Quang An with scissors. Ho Viet Cong rushed in, grabbed the scissors and stabbed An.
Suddenly, two men with guns fired several shots into the crowd, injuring two bystanders.
When An was taken to Nghe An General Hospital, Tuan's group chased and prevented the car from entering the emergency room, smashing the vehicle. Vinh City Police then had to mobilize dozens of people to restore order.
Ho Viet Cong and Nguyen Anh Tu were later arrested. The fight left Le Anh Tuan with 12% injuries and Truong Quang An with 26%.
Most of the people present at the brawl have complicated personal histories, some of whom have criminal records. Vinh City Police are calling on accomplices in the case to surrender.
