Being caught off guard, Mr. T. panicked and ran away. At that time, the street was crowded so people shouted and the subject stopped. Immediately after that, the subject got into the car of a young man waiting nearby and left the scene.

Witnessing the incident, many people took the victim to the emergency room. The entire incident lasted nearly 20 seconds and was recorded by a security camera.

According to Lam Dong General Hospital, the patient was admitted with injuries to the waist, forearms, and bruises on the back. The police continue to investigate and clarify the case.
