Due to heavy rain, the river water rose high and flowed fast, making search and rescue operations difficult. As of 6am on September 9, authorities had not yet found An’s body.

It is known that An is currently studying in grade 8 at Nho Hoa Secondary School. His family is poor, his mother is disabled, and is raising a small child alone. For nearly a year now, his mother has gone to the South, and An and his brother are living with their grandmother.
