Man stabs 2 students at middle school, gets away
POLICE in eastern China are hunting for a knife-wielding man who broke into a middle school yesterday and stabbed two students before fleeing.
The man, wearing a cap, gloves and a red coat, entered the No. 1 Middle School in Nanchang, capital of Jiangxi Province, at 6:48am, after a few students had arrived early, a spokesman of the Nanchang city government said.
He went to the second floor of the school's main building and attacked a first-year student, who was wounded but managed to escape after a scuffle. The man chased the girl and attacked another second-year student, a boy, on the way. The two were rushed to a hospital but have been taken out of critical care, the spokesman said.
City authorities have told the police to catch the suspect, although the chase may prove difficult as the attacker's identity and motive were unknown, the spokesman said.
Campus security became a top issue of public concern in 2010 after six school attacks occurred in three months from March to May that year, leaving at least 17 dead and scores injured. Most of the victims were primary school or kindergarten children.
The string of violence prompted schools across the country to improve security.
