On April 18, Huong Hoa police (Quang Tri) arrested Ho A Hung (18 years old, residing in Thuan commune) and Ho Van Lan (17 years old, residing in Huong Loc commune) - two suspects of robbery, dragging the victim in the middle of the street.
According to the investigation results, at about 9:00 p.m. on April 15, Nguyen Thi Thuong Thuong (15 years old, resident of Thuan commune, Huong Hoa district) was helping sell groceries for her family when two young men on a motorbike rushed up and snatched her bag.
Thuong was dragged for about 300 meters. Determined to snatch the bag, one of them kicked Thuong onto the street. The victim suffered abrasions all over his body and had to be hospitalized.
In the bag were 1.4 million VND and 32 phone cards worth 1.7 million VND. The two suspects confessed to using the money to eat, drink and buy drugs. They burned the bag to destroy the evidence.
