According to information from the People's Committee of Nhu Xuan district, at around 6:15 a.m. on September 23, at the traffic spillway (Suoi Thanh spillway), in the area of Sub-camp No. 3 (Thanh Lam Prison, Xuan Hoa commune), an incident occurred where two brothers, Ha Van Sy (born in 2003) and his younger sister, Ha Thi Nhi (born in 2012, both permanent residents of Thanh Son village, Thanh Hoa commune, Nhu Xuan district), were driving a motorbike through the flooded Suoi Thanh spillway and were swept away by the water.
Immediately after the accident, local people and forces rescued Ha Thi Nhi and took her to the Nhu Xuan District General Hospital for emergency treatment. Her health condition is now stable. At 8:12 a.m. the same day, the body of the victim Ha Van Sy was found and handed over to her family for burial according to regulations.
The cause of the accident was due to subjectivity, the water was about 20cm above the traffic spillway. Although the Steering Committee for Disaster Prevention and Search and Rescue of Xuan Hoa Commune and Thanh Lam Prison had posted warning signs, the victim was subjective and did not observe, so he walked close to the spillway edge, fell downstream, and was swept away by the water. The People's Committee of the district and commune organized visits, encouraged and provided timely support to the victim's family.
