A man in HCMC was arrested Tuesday after stealing 108 taels, or four kg, of gold from a shop two days earlier.

Pham Van Nu, 37, was arrested by the police and is under investigation for stealing.

On Sunday, the owner of a gold shop on Ha Huy Giap Street in HCMC’s District 12 discovered that all the jewelry prepared for sale on the God of Wealth Day, worth VND4.5 billion ($192,000), had disappeared. God of Wealth Day falls on the 10th day of the lunar year, or on Tuesday this year.

Security camera footage revealed that a thief climbed onto a balcony to gain access to the gold shop. The suspect is seen in the footage wearing a black coat, gray jeans, a face mask and a bag on his back.
