A MAN suspected of shooting dead two traffic officers while he was on the run for allegedly killing a young couple told police he had planned to be a professional assassin.
Hu Yihua was caught in Xiamen City, Fujian Province, on July 8, Guangzhou Daily reported yesterday.
Hu allegedly told police that he had planned to take a train from Xiamen to Zhejiang Province, where he had allegedly killed the couple and stole their car, and then go to Yunnan Province before going to Myanmar to become a mercenary.
Inspired by his father, who had served in the Chinese army for five years, Hu's dream was to be a soldier, or a professional killer.
He had applied to join the army, but was rejected due to his poor eyesight, villagers in his hometown in Zhejiang's Jinhua City told Guangzhou Daily.
Since 2008, Hu has been obsessed with guns and military websites. Zhejiang police seized two guns and an army knife from his home in Jinhua. He is divorced, unemployed and a gambling addict, the report said.
