Gia Lai police escort victim with severed arm to hospital

On the evening of 30 July, a team of the Gia Lai provincial traffic police (CSGT) received a distress signal from driver Nguyễn Đình Đảm on National Highway 1D. The team cleared traffic with a special‑purpose vehicle and, under the direction of senior sergeant Đào Duy Quý, used a motorbike to lead an ambulance more than 10 km to the Gia Lai Central Multispecialty Hospital.
