Lam was arrested immediately after committing the crime.

According to initial information, at around 6:30 p.m. on June 29, Dao Xuan Lam (born in 1992) in Ha Mo commune, Dan Phuong district, was at home when the children: Uong Van D., Nguyen Tien N. and Dao Tuan A. (from 10 to 12 years old), all neighbors, came and sat in Lam's yard playing games on their mobile phones.

While the children were playing video games, Lam went into the kitchen, took a knife about 20 cm long, and suddenly stabbed all three children. Seeing that, D. and Tuan A. were able to run out the gate, but N. was held back by Lam and stabbed once more in the right neck.

Afterwards, N. also struggled, escaped from Lam’s hands, ran to the gate and collapsed. After committing the act, the knife blade fell off so Lam took the handle and put it away inside the house.

The three children were taken to the emergency room by everyone. Currently, D. and Tuan A. are in stable condition and have been discharged from the hospital, while N. is still being treated at the hospital. As for Dao Xuan Lam, he was arrested by the police immediately after.
