Previously, on the afternoon of October 29, Mr. Quang went from his house in hamlet 1, Linh Son commune to his wife's parents' house in An Phu hamlet, Thanh An commune.
However, when he arrived at Thanh Thinh commune (Thanh Chuong district), due to the rain and rising water, his motorbike broke down, so Mr. Quang left his motorbike in Thanh Thinh commune and took another means of transport to his wife's parents' house.
