POLICE have detained a man accused of running down 11 urban management officers with an SUV as they were demolishing his allegedly illegally built house in Wuhan, capital of Hubei Province.
Gong Zelin, 35, has been detained for endangering public safety after the Nissan SUV he was driving allegedly hit and injured the officers on Tuesday.
The incident occurred while they were demolishing his four-story house, which was among more than 80 illegal buildings in Houhu Village in Wuhan's Huangpi District, said a spokesman for the district government.
Three of the 11 officers were seriously injured, but stable, said the spokesman.
Police apprehended Gong after the SUV crashed into a small mound, he said.
The district government deployed more than 2,000 people on Tuesday from departments including the bureaus of urban management, public security and land and resources, to demolish the allegedly illegal settlement.
The villagers had not sought approval from the land and resources bureau to build the homes, said Liu Qingzhong, an official with the district's urban construction bureau.
