Beijing police shoot knife attack suspect
Print Edition
Police shot and wounded a man in downtown Beijing who is alleged to have resisted arrest after killing one person and injuring several others with a kitchen knife.
Police identified the suspect as a 29-year-old surnamed Song from the northeastern province of Heilongjiang and said the motive for the knife attack on a street in Beijing鈥檚 Chaoyang District was under investigation.
The suspect and victims were taken to hospital, police said. His injury was not critical, they said without giving details.
Public sensitivity to knife attacks in China has been heightened by a series of incidents, including a mass stabbing at a train station in March 2014 in the southwestern city of Kunming that left 31 dead.
Last month, a lone attacker stabbed a French man and a Chinese woman in a Beijing shopping complex, killing the woman.
Violent crime is rare in China, but there has been a series of knife and axe attacks in recent years, many on school children.
