Yesterday afternoon, tenants at room 8 in Go Thuyen B hamlet, Tan Hung commune, heard an argument. They went to investigate and discovered a 17-year-old boy, originally from Vinh Thanh commune, Tay Ninh, collapsed in a pool of blood. He had multiple stab wounds to his neck and chest. Rescuers rushed him to the emergency room, but the victim died en route to a higher-level hospital due to his severe injuries.

During questioning by investigators, the teenage girl confessed that she and her boyfriend shared the rented room. She stated that an argument escalated, and in a fit of anger, she used scissors to stab him.
