Police in Da Nang have arrested a 26-year-old man who threatened a couple with a knife to steal their motorbike before attacking two others, causing panic in Thăng An commune.
On September 7, the city’s investigative police office confirmed the temporary detention of Thái Anh Tuấn (26, residing in Thăng Trường, Da Nang) on charges of robbery and intentional injury.
According to the investigation, around dusk on August 29, Tuấn armed himself with a 31cm knife and walked toward the house of H.Đ. (63) in Hưng Mỹ hamlet, Thăng An commune, intending to confront him over a family dispute.
On the way, Tuấn spotted N.C.K. (22) and his wife riding past on a motorbike. He blocked their path, brandished the knife, and shouted “This is a robbery!” Terrified, the couple abandoned their vehicle and fled.
Tuấn then rode to H.Đ.’s house, where he attacked the homeowner and his son H.V.Q. (40), leaving both with arm injuries. Locals quickly intervened, restraining Tuấn and handing him over to police.
The Da Nang police are consolidating case files to proceed with prosecution.
