A male student was seriously stabbed after school hours.

Just stepping out of the school gate after school hours, a male student of Thanh Dong High School (Le Thanh Nghi Ward, Hai Duong City, Hai Duong) was stabbed in the left chest by a strange young man with a knife.

On the afternoon of December 20, Ms. Bui Thi Kim Tuyen - Chairwoman of the People's Committee of Le Thanh Nghi Ward - said the incident happened at noon the same day.

Accordingly, at around 11:30 a.m. on December 20, after school, Tran Danh Thuy (a male student in grade 11A, Thanh Dong High School) went out of the school gate when he was suddenly stabbed in the left chest by a strange young man who then ran away.

Thuy was taken to Hai Duong General Hospital in a seriously injured condition.

Hai Duong City Police later arrived at the scene to investigate the incident. Initial investigations determined that the young man who stabbed Tran Danh Thuy was not a student at Thanh Dong High School.

The incident is said to have stemmed from a conflict between Thuy and another student at the same school. Afterwards, this student called a young man named Hiep to resolve the conflict.

Mr. Pham Xuan Hoang - principal of Thanh Dong High School - said that at the time of the incident he was on a business trip so he did not know the details.

On the same day, Mr. Hoang and the school board went to the hospital to visit and check on the health of the stabbed male student.

"Thuy is now out of danger and is gradually recovering. The police are currently investigating the details. We are also coordinating with the authorities to clarify the case," said Mr. Hoang.
