Upon reaching Km101 - Km101+100 (in Group 1, Huong Son town, Phu Binh district), Long encountered a task force from the Traffic Police Department of the Provincial Police and the Traffic Police and Order Team of Phu Binh District Police, who were carrying out patrol and control duties to ensure traffic safety during the peak period before the 2025 Lunar New Year.
Because his vehicle lacked rearview mirrors, and fearing being fined, Long refused to comply when traffic police signaled him to stop, instead turning his vehicle around and fleeing in the opposite direction.
Long accelerated and crashed into Captain Nguyen Xuan Khuong, a member of the task force, causing Captain Khuong to fall to the ground and sustain injuries.
Following the incident, the task force apprehended Long and handed him over to the Phu Binh District Police. Upon receiving him, the District Police drew up a report arresting Nguyen Thanh Long in the act of resisting a public officer.
