Previously, according to witnesses at the scene, at around 2:00 p.m. on May 12, a fire suddenly broke out on the first floor of a four-story house at 144 Van Cao, which had been converted into a bar.
The column of smoke from the fire rose high, covering a whole area.
At the time of the fire, there were four female employees of the restaurant inside. Since the house did not have stairs or emergency exits, after the fire and smoke engulfed the first floor, the female employees ran to the second and third floors to call for help. One of them jumped from the upper floor to the ground and was injured but luckily escaped; the other three were trapped in the fire.
Firefighters spray water to put out the fire

By about 4:30 p.m. the same day, the fire was basically under control. However, three female employees were found dead.
The cause of the fire is currently under investigation.
