At about 1 a.m., fire from a corner of a kiosk quickly spread to the entire Vina market with a corrugated iron roof on Lac Long Quan street, Khai Quang ward, Vinh Yen city.

Mr. Toan said that his house is about 500 meters from the market. He was sleeping when he heard shouts of "Vina market fire". When he arrived, the fire had already engulfed a corner of the market. "At that time, the wind was very strong so the fire spread quickly. In just a few minutes, the whole market was covered in a bright red color. The smell of burning was so thick in the air that people who came to watch could not stand close because of the heat," he said.

Many merchants ran into the market to save their belongings, but the fire was so strong that they could not save many. More than 10 cars parked on the sidewalk were also burned.
