That's a lot of Officers for one man, must be a slow day...  ???:

Hundreds of Vietnamese officers surrounded house of 'Onion Leaf Bae' to arrest him, wife says

The Vietnamese noodle vendor dubbed “Onion Leaf Bae” was gagged by the police during his arrest on Wednesday, according to his wife.

Bui Tuan Lam was arrested over a viral video that was widely viewed as mocking a senior government official in Vietnam.

Lam is a 38-year-old former activist who runs a beef noodle stall in the city of Da Nang in the Hai Chau district. He was accused of anti-state propaganda for his online content, including a video of himself imitating celebrity chef Nusret Gökçe, also known as “Salt Bae,” who served an expensive steak to a Vietnamese government official.

He was apprehended in his family home, where hundreds of officers reportedly surrounded the area prior to his arrest, according to his wife Le Than Lam.

Who knows? Maybe Lam is a fan of Salt Bae and he wanna imitate him. The police officer and the governor don't even question him and give him the chance to explain.  ;D
