At the police station, Huy, Dat and Tung admitted their crimes. Accordingly, to have money to go out for the holidays, all three of them gathered to find cars parked on the street, waiting for an opportunity to break into the locks and steal property.
At around 2:00 p.m. on April 23, Tung drove a motorbike carrying Huy and Dat to Nguyen Trung Ngan Street (Khue Trung Ward, Cam Le) and discovered Mr. Q's pickup truck with license plate 74C-105 parked on the side of the road. At this time, Huy stood guard, while Dat and Tung approached, got into the car and searched for property. After taking the gold metal necklace and cash, Dat and Tung got into the car for Huy to take them away.
On the same afternoon, Huy, Dat and Tung brought the stolen necklace to a gold shop on Hung Vuong Street (Thanh Khe District) to sell for more than 403 million VND. With the money, the three of them went shopping for each of them a bracelet, a gold necklace, 3 Honda Airblade motorbikes and 3 mobile phones including Iphone 14 promax, Iphone 14 plus, totaling more than 200 million VND. The remaining money was kept by the subjects as a "common fund" to go out and have fun during the holidays... but unexpectedly, all three were discovered and arrested by the police.
