On the evening of May 11, the Fire Prevention and Rescue Police Department of Binh Duong Province Police said that the body of Mr. V.V.P (36 years old, residing in Long An) swept away by water and gone missing had been found.
Previously, on the morning of May 10, widespread and prolonged heavy rain caused water levels to rise in many areas in Binh Duong.
Mr. V.V.P went to the construction site (belonging to the project of dredging and reinforcing Cai stream, Phu Chanh ward, Tan Uyen city, Binh Duong) to check the excavator to see if it was flooded.
However, by noon of the same day, his colleagues did not see Mr. P return, so they went to look for him. When they arrived at the construction site, they saw Mr. P's motorbike parked on the bank of the canal but could not find Mr. P anywhere. Suspecting that Mr. P was swept away by the water, everyone reported it to the authorities for searching.
It is known that when he arrived at the construction site, Mr. P recorded a clip and sent it to his colleagues. But after that, his colleagues could not contact this person. The incident must be reported to the authorities.
A representative of the Fire Prevention and Rescue Police Department of Binh Duong Province Police said that at around 10:00 p.m. on May 10, the Provincial Police received a report about the incident.
The provincial police mobilized 4 specialized vehicles, 1 lifeboat and 18 soldiers to search for the victim. By this evening, the authorities had found the victim's body.
The body was found about 200 m from the original missing location.
The police are investigating the incident.
