Five slain by burglar who is caught hours later

FIVE people, including three children, were killed in a burglary shortly after midnight yesterday in Changshu City, Jiangsu Province, today's Suzhou Daily reported.

The suspect Wang Long was seized six hours later along with 20,000 yuan of stolen money in Suzhou's Xiangcheng District, Changshu police said on their official Weibo microblog.

One of the killed victims, a man in his 30s and surnamed Jia, owned a garment workshop and hired Wang Long, 24, from Anhui Province to work there. A source close to Jia said Wang Long saw his boss receiving 20,000 yuan from a customer and decided to steal the money.

A 27-year-old woman and Jia's three children, two boys and one girl aged one to 14 years old, were also killed by Wang Long, the paper said.

Police are still investigating the murder case.
