Early yesterday morning, residents walking on the sidewalk of Luong Dinh Cua street, Tay Nha Trang ward, discovered a deceased man with a deep neck wound and reported it to authorities. During the investigation, police arrested Bao and Vu.

Bao confessed that he and Vu rode a motorbike along Luong Dinh Cua street, saw the victim walking on the sidewalk, and approached him to ask for money. When refused, Bao used a knife he was carrying to stab the victim's neck, causing him to collapse, then fled with Vu.
