鈥楢nti-stampede鈥 patrols
Print Edition
Beijing police are patrolling the city鈥檚 subways and trains to stop people wearing face masks, strange costumes and forming flash mobs, warning commuters that such actions could jeopardise public safety by causing stampedes.
According to Xinhua news agency, law enforcement teams 鈥 which started the patrols on May 1 鈥 have encountered 83 cases of 鈥渋mproper behavior,鈥 including hawking, begging and the distribution of flyers.
Costumes and masks are likely to attract the attention of other passengers, Xinhua quoted Liang Jianwei, vice head of the Beijing traffic administration corps, as saying.
鈥淲hen a lot of people stop to watch, the risk of stampedes increases,鈥 Liang said.
Passengers should avoid forming flash mobs, Liang said, adding that police will warn against 鈥減roblematic behavior.鈥
Last year, Beijing police said people in Halloween costume on the subway faced arrest as they may cause crowds to gather.
