Initial information, on December 11, a video recording the scuffle between the driver and the bus attendant of bus route 14 (Eastern Bus Station - 3/2 - Western Bus Station) with a delivery staff at 60 Vo Van Tan, Vo Thi Sau Ward, District 3 was spread on social networks. The incident quickly attracted attention because it occurred in the city center, affecting security and order in the area.

According to the investigation, at around 1:30 p.m. on December 10, Le Minh Hien was driving a motorbike on Vo Van Tan Street. When he reached the intersection of Vo Van Tan and Le Quy Don, Hien thought that the bus on route 14 driven by Vo Thanh Bang had forced his way, causing the bus to swerve. Angry, Hien chased after the bus, overtook it, blocked it, then cursed and banged on the bus door.

Immediately after, driver Vo Thanh Bang got out of the car, holding an iron bar. Le Minh Hien rushed in, grabbed Bang's hand and pushed him into a car parked on the side of the road. Meanwhile, bus employee Pham Duy Nien kicked Hien in the back, causing him to fall onto the road. The three then continued to fight and scuffle. The incident was stopped by local residents, after which all three left the scene.

During the investigation, the police found a 65cm long iron bar on the bus - which the driver said was a tool used to turn the jack when repairing the bus and admitted to using it to beat Hien.

The People's Committee of Vo Thi Sau Ward said that the fight occurred in a crowded area, near the War Remnants Museum, where many tourists gather, seriously affecting security and order.

Although all three people refused to have their injuries assessed and did not request criminal proceedings, the District 3 Police Department still decided to make emergency arrests to investigate and clarify the matter, emphasizing the need to handle them strictly to deter and ensure security and order in the area.
