On August 31, Mr. Ta Thanh Khiem, Chairman of the People's Committee of Ward 13 (Binh Thanh District, Ho Chi Minh City) said that he was checking the information and sending police forces to the scene to verify and clarify information related to the clip of a fight in the area of ​​releasing fish and releasing flower lanterns at Dieu Phap Pagoda (Ward 13, Binh Thanh District).

Previously, social media spread a clip of a group of people fighting underwater by the river on Vu Lan night (August 30, the 15th day of the seventh lunar month).

The 32-second clip shows two men fighting in the water. At this time, another man holds a long stick, intending to attack the man in the white shirt. At the same time, a woman standing near the river bank rushes out, picks up a long stick from the water, and raises it high to rescue the man in the white shirt.

Several other people standing on the shore were told to throw rocks at the people in the boat, as well as those who beat the man in white.

Initial information, the incident stemmed from a conflict when people came to release fish on Vu Lan night and were electrocuted by some people on boats.
