According to Binh Long Ward Police, after more than 40 hours of continuous search and rescue operations, functional forces found the body of the victim swept away by floodwaters on the evening of September 22nd in the Xa Cat lake area, Xa Cam neighborhood, Binh Long ward.
The victim was identified as Ms. T.T. B. L (46 years old, residing in An Loc ward, Dong Nai city).
Currently, functional forces continue to deploy the search for vehicles swept away by floodwaters. Task forces maintain inspection in the Xa Cat lake area and suspicious locations, and use specialized vehicles and equipment to serve the search and salvage work according to plan.
Previously, Lao Dong Newspaper reported that in the late afternoon of September 22, prolonged heavy rain caused many roads in Binh Long ward to be deeply flooded. At about 5 pm on the same day, on Su Van Hanh street (Xa Cam neighborhood, Binh Long ward), people discovered a white car swept away by the water, so they quickly reported it to functional agencies.
Immediately after receiving the information, Binh Long Ward Police urgently reported to superiors, and at the same time coordinated with PC07 Department of Dong Nai City Police, military and civil defense forces and related units to deploy search and rescue plans in the area identified as the place where the person was suspected of missing.
Due to the continued complicated weather, prolonged heavy rain, strong currents, limited visibility and difficult search terrain, it has significantly affected the rescue and relief process.
