The fire started out under the bus and quickly spread out. The adults were only able to get Huy out. Tien was unable to escape while Huy suffered severe burns and has been hospitalised. Phan also suffered from light injuries.
The firefighters sent fire trucks to the scene immediately. However, since there were many flammable objects inside the bus, the fire spread quickly and destroyed the whole bus.
According to Phan, she had just returned from Thong Nhat General Hospital in Dong Nai Province when the fire started.
The cause of the fire is being investigated.
