Shot kidnapper’s pictures turn out to be from police drill footages

PICTURES of a “kidnapper” shot at Global Harbor shopping mall in Putuo District created a sensation after they were posted on the Internet yesterday afternoon. But police quickly moved to clarify they were footages of an anti-kidnapping video exercise.

The pictures were first posted by a netzien at 4:48pm, showing confrontation between the police and a man holding a girl’s neck. The man could be later seen lying in “blood.”

A netizen, who went by the name “Lady-chen-chen,” wrote that the “kidnapper” had been shot to death at the scene.

Putuo police later clarified on its weibo account that the pictures were from a police exercise at the mall and the “blood” and the “kidnapper” were not real.

A fire drill was ongoing at popular mall today.
