Pham Quoc Huy, 50, allegedly rode a motorbike from Ho Chi Minh City-adjacent Dong Nai Province to 60-year-old Ho Vu Binh's house in the Mekong Delta Province of Vinh Long’s Mang Thit District on Thursday.
Following a quarrel with members of the family, Huy used a gun to shoot 59-year-old Ho Ngoc Can, 60-year-old Nguyen Thi Kim Hue, and Binh’s son, 40-year-old Ho Binh Dang.
Huy then used gasoline to burn down the house, before escaping the scene on a motorbike. The victims were rushed to the hospital, but Hue succumbed to her injuries and died.
Police forces from Mang Thit District and Vinh Long Province are currently searching for Huy.
An initial investigation revealed that Dang used to work in Dong Nai and borrowed money from people he could not pay back. He returned to his hometown and people have recently been visiting his house to demand their money back.
