Tran Hoang Nhat Tung, 36, and Dam Minh Quang, 30, both from the town of Ninh Hoa, traveled to a Vietcombank branch by motorcycle on Wednesday morning. Both covered their faces by air masks.

One of the men entered the bank and threatened customers and members of staff with a gun, before demanding money. The man’s accomplice remained outside during the robbery, threatening passers-by with another gun.

One of the suspects reportedly fired shots at the bank’s security officers.

The two men were apprehended by police while riding a motorcycle on a street in Ninh Hoa on Thursday night. Four homemade guns and ammunition were discovered at the suspects’ house.

The police also seized VND3 billion (US$130,400) taken from the bank.
