On August 28, Ham Thanh Commune Police (Lam Dong province) said they had just supported the search and brought Mrs. Nguyen Thi Sang (born 1950) back safely after the old woman got lost in a deep forest area.
Previously, Ham Thanh Commune Police received a report from the family about Ms. Sang leaving her house in the morning but not returning. Relatives organized searches around the area but without results, so they reported it to the police.
Recognizing that Ms. Sang was old, in poor health, and mentally unstable, while the search area had hilly terrain, many rivers, streams, ponds and lakes, and was in the rainy season, Ham Thanh Commune Police mobilized officers and soldiers to coordinate with the family to urgently search.
The police force checked the roads, forest areas and places Ms. Sang was likely to pass through. Officers and soldiers directly entered the forest to search.
After more than 2 hours, the police force discovered Ms. Sang in the deep forest area. At the time of being found, she was still safe.
Officers and soldiers quickly approached, supported and took her out of the forest area and handed her over to her family for care.
