Ho Chi Minh City police are investigating after video clips circulated online showing a man chasing and repeatedly attacking a young motorcyclist in District 1.
On September 5, local authorities confirmed that Tan Dinh Ward Police, in coordination with the Ben Thanh Traffic Police Team, are working to identify the suspect.
At least three videos recorded from different angles by passersby captured the incident. A red scooter was seen lying on the street as the assailant shouted, then used his elbows to strike the head of a young man sitting on a black motorbike. The victim appeared to plead for mercy, shielded himself, and tried to escape.
The attacker continued chasing the victim into a nearby medical center, forcing security guards, medical staff, and bystanders to intervene before he eventually left the scene on his motorbike. The violent episode drew a large crowd.
Authorities later verified the incident occurred on the afternoon of September 4 along Tran Nhat Duat Street, Tan Dinh Ward.
Police also obtained a separate clip the same day showing the same man—riding without a helmet—ramming his motorbike into the rear of a car on Phan Dinh Phung Street, Phu Nhuan District.
Tan Dinh Ward Police are coordinating with relevant units to track down the suspect and clarify the circumstances of both incidents.
