Speaking to reporters, Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Tuan, Chairman of Thanh Yen Commune People's Committee, said: At that time, the cable car on the right side of the bridge suddenly broke, causing the bridge to tilt, throwing both vehicles (a car, a motorbike) and three people into the stream below. The three victims were rescued by local people in time and are currently in stable health.

Immediately after the incident, the commune leaders were present at the scene to fix the problem. At the same time, they deployed traffic diversion so that people could grasp the situation and proactively travel.

Pa Thom suspension bridge is an important traffic route, serving the travel and production needs of more than 100 households in Pung Pon and Huoi Moi villages, along with many people who regularly cross the stream to work in the fields.

Currently, the authorities are coordinating to inspect and assess the current condition of the bridge; at the same time, they are developing a plan to restore traffic to the people as soon as possible. While waiting for repairs, the local authorities advise people to limit their travel to the stream area and follow safety instructions during the rainy season.
