Early in the morning of the same day, a boat carrying 6 crew members was on its way to bring fishing seafood from Nha Trang to shore when it encountered big waves and sank, leaving 2 people missing.
According to initial information, at around 6am, Mr. Huynh Van Quy (residing in Vinh Hai Ward) was driving a boat carrying 5 crew members back after a day of fishing.
When moving to the area about 700m from the mouth of Cai River, near Tran Phu Bridge, the rough sea hit the boat, causing it to sink.
Immediately after the accident, many crew members on the boat jumped into the sea and called for help.
Cau Bong Border Guard Station coordinated with functional forces to quickly deploy rescue, bringing 4 people safely to shore.
Rescue forces continued to sink into the sea to check the cabin, the area around the sunken boat but so far have not found the two missing people.
