Accordingly, at around 1:00 a.m. on June 20, while patrolling, the Phu Thanh commune police patrol team discovered two subjects on a motorbike with signs of stealing dogs.

Immediately, the patrol team asked the subjects to stop the vehicle for inspection, but suddenly the subjects accelerated and ran away. Hearing the noise, local people ran out to coordinate with the authorities to surround and arrest the two subjects.

Not knowing the way, the two subjects ran into a dead end and were forced to surrender. Evidence seized was a sack and a noose used to catch dogs.
