According to witnesses, at this time, Ms. T. opened the door to go out to exercise, Mr. Hung suddenly rushed into the house with a knife, locked the door and attacked Ms. T. and Mr. N., causing both of them to die.

After committing the crime, Mr. Hung drank pesticide to commit suicide but was discovered and given timely emergency care at Khanh Hoa Provincial General Hospital.
