POLICE have detained a student who allegedly splashed acid on 18 of his classmates at a southern China middle school on Friday, authorities said yesterday.
A police investigation found the student surnamed Cai had picked up a container of sulfuric acid from a street near the fishing port in Lufeng City, Guangdong Province, said a government spokesman. It was believed the acid had been discarded by fishermen who use it to charge storage batteries on their boats.
Cai is alleged to have splashed the acid on his classmates at Jiadong Middle School during a quarrel about 8am on Friday.
Six of the 18 victims were discharged from hospital after treatment. Another seven were being treated at a local hospital and five were sent to hospitals in Shantou City.
The five students at Shantou Central Hospital suffered burns to 2 to 10 percent of their bodies, according to the doctor in charge.
Five male students had burns to their faces, hands and backs that would likely leave scars.
