According to initial information, Phuong Anh is an employee of massage facility 77 (Ly Thai To street, My Long ward, Long Xuyen city).
At around 6:00 p.m. last night, Lam Thanh H. (31 years old, residing in Chau Phong commune, Tan Chau town) came to massage parlor 77 in a drunken state.
Here, H. received a massage from Phuong Anh. According to the agreement, Phuong Anh gave H. a “relaxing” massage for 500,000 VND.
However, after the "relaxing" massage, H. only agreed to tip Phuong Anh 250 thousand VND.

Phuong Anh received the tip, then went down to the parking lot, opened the trunk, took out a yellow plastic-handled Thai knife, and held it in her hand, intending to cut something.
At this time, H. came down from upstairs and suddenly pulled out his belt to hit Phuong Anh. The female massage attendant stabbed H. in the left side of his ribs, causing the young man to collapse on the spot and die shortly after.
