Previously, the Ninh Binh Provincial Border Guard Command received a report from Mr. Nguyen Van Khuong (born in 1976, residing in Nghia Hung district, Nam Dinh ) about the disappearance of Mr. Tran Van Vinh.

According to Mr. Khuong's report, on September 16, he hired Mr. Tran Van Vinh and 20 other fishermen to exploit clams at the clam farm of Mr. Pham Van Thong (born in 1969, residing in Nghia Hung district, Nam Dinh) near the Con Noi sea area (Kim Son, Ninh Binh), about 2km to the West.

At around 11pm the same day, the tide rose, so the clam miners took a break and went to sleep. Only Mr. Tran Van Vinh went down to the foam panels anchored near the ship to collect the remaining clams.

At 5:30 a.m. on September 17, when the clam miners woke up, they could not find Vinh anywhere and the clam mining area was missing 3 pieces of foam. People used boats and rafts to search around the area but could not find any trace of him. The information about Vinh's disappearance was then reported to the Con Noi Border Guard Station.

The Ninh Binh Provincial Border Guard Command mobilized 1 ship and 2 boats of Squadron 2, along with many officers and soldiers to join the search. At the same time, it directed border guards and fishermen in the area to coordinate in finding the victims.

After receiving the information, the Ninh Binh Provincial Steering Committee for Disaster Prevention and Search and Rescue sent a telegram to the Steering Committees for Disaster Prevention and Search and Rescue of Thanh Hoa, Nam Dinh, and Thai Binh provinces to support the search for the missing people.
