Hearing the cry for help, people ran over but did not dare to approach because Hung was holding a knife with an aggressive attitude and continuously screaming.
Dozens of special forces from Dong Nai Province Police arrived later. Some tried to approach the scene while their teammates negotiated and urged Hung to drop the knife to ensure the safety of the hostages.
Unsuccessful in advising him, taking advantage of Hung's carelessness, the reconnaissance team rushed in, disarmed him, knocked him down, and rescued Huyen and her child. Lieutenant Colonel Vu Van Nhiem (Chief of Tan Hiep Ward Police) was injured in the arm.
Currently, Huyen and her mother are mentally stable.
