Recently, a 1-minute clip appeared on social media, recording a man holding a stick and hitting a child sitting in front of a dinner table. Seeing this, a woman holding a small child ran to stop him, but was repeatedly hit on the head by the man. Not stopping there, the man used his foot to kick a child against the door.

The incident was posted on social media, causing public outrage at the man's behavior.

According to the investigation, the incident happened in Xuan Thanh village, Hau Thanh commune (Yen Thanh district, Nghe An province). Previously, on April 23, after coming home from drinking, Nguyen Van Hoang (born in 1986, residing in Xuan Thanh village) used a stainless steel stick to repeatedly beat his wife and children.

On the afternoon of April 24, after going to her sister's house to visit, seeing Hoang continuing to be drunk, a younger sister (Hoang's sister-in-law) was afraid that her brother-in-law would continue to beat his wife and children, so she extracted the camera footage and posted the incident on social media.
