4 injured in knife attack at market

A MAN brandishing a knife injured four people, including one seriously, in south China’s Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region yesterday, police said, the latest in a series of such attacks.

Police in Beihai City detained a 30-year-old suspect, Liu Xing, in connection with the early morning attack at a market, according to a police statement.

Authorities are still investigating the attack, the statement said, without giving further details.

Public sensitivity to knife attacks in China has heightened following a series of incidents, including a mass stabbing at a train station in March 2014 in the southwestern city of Kunming that left 31 people dead. Authorities said that attack was carried out by separatists from the western region of Xinjiang.
