Two cars collided in HCMC's outlying district of Cu Chi early Monday, resulting in the deaths of two people.

At around 1 a.m. a taxi with a man, a woman and a four-year-old child traveling from neighboring Tay Ninh Province to Cu Chi on National Highway 22 rear-ended another car and caught fire.

The woman was tragically stuck inside and died on the spot.

The driver, the male passenger and child were taken to hospital but the man died on the way. The driver is severely injured while the child is safe.

The taxi completely burned down and only its charred frame remains.

The driver of the other car is reportedly in stable condition.

The police are investigating.
