Earlier, on the morning of May 15, as usual, Ms. Hoang Thi Thu (residing in Yen Son commune) let her family’s herd of 17 goats out to find food near the farm. The goats then went to graze in the nearby Van Son Commune Cemetery. However, only about half an hour later, Ms. Thu was shocked to see 9 goats suddenly die.
According to the family, these 9 goats are worth nearly 50 million VND. Two days earlier, 2 goats belonging to Mrs. Thu's family that went into this area to forage also died unexpectedly.
This cemetery is managed by the People's Committee of Van Son commune, and a local resident has used the land on both sides of the road to plant acacia trees. According to Ms. Thu, the acacia trees were newly planted, so her family had no intention of letting the goats in, but some of them climbed into the cemetery to look for food and died unexpectedly.
