Print Edition
Beijing police released the latest updates on the investigation into the knife attack at a downtown shopping mall in the capital on Sunday, revealing revenge on society as the suspect鈥檚 motive.
The suspect, a 35-year-old native of Xihua County in central China鈥檚 Henan Province surnamed Zhu, sought revenge on society due to his addiction to online games, adversities in work and life, and conflicts with his employers, which gradually led to his alleged personal grievances.
According to police, Zhu left home after dropping out of middle school, and had worked in a number of provinces including Henan, Jiangsu and Hebei.
He has been jobless since resigning at the end of last year from a factory in Langfang, in north China鈥檚 Hebei Province, investigation showed.
Beijing police thanked employees at the mall as well as restaurant staff and passers-by on the scene who helped them to apprehend the suspect, but they also advised citizens to ensure their own safety before going to help those in jeopardy.
At around 1pm on Sunday at Joy City in the commercial area of Xidan, Xicheng District, Zhu is alleged to have launched the knife assault, resulting in one death and 12 people injured.
Police said none of the victims knew the suspect.
None of the injured are in critical condition, and five have left hospital. The suspect is under criminal detention as investigation continues.
