Previously, on April 18, a Mai Chau resident living along Highway 6 discovered two children walking their bicycles and showing signs of hunger, thirst, and fatigue. The residents took the children into their home to bathe, cut their hair, change their clothes, and reported to the Mai Chau District Police to pick them up and take them to the headquarters to take care of them and find their relatives.

Through newspapers, social networks and mass media, by the night of April 19, Mai Chau District Police had contacted the relatives and families of the two children.

The family said the two children had left home on March 29, and by the time Mai Chau District Police discovered them, they had been gone for 21 days. The distance from their usual residence to where they were found was about 500km.
