A Vinasun taxi driver was arrested this morning for allegedly killing a motorbike taxi driver, reportedly in a fight over passengers, in front of Ho Chi Minh City's zoo. The taxi driver was identified by police as Nguyen Hong Vinh, 38.
According to a witness, Vinh parked at the zoo's front gate awaiting guests when he had a quarrel with Tran Ngoc Loi, 53.
During the wrangle, Vinh attacked Loi with a wheel spanner and seriously injured him, the witness said. Loi was rushed to a nearby hospital, but died later on.
Vinh is currently in the custody of District 1 police for further investigation and clarify the matters.
