18 students and a teacher stabbed in new school attack

por Jimmy1982

A man has been executed on murder charges after The Supreme People's Court denied his appeal for a reprieve. The middle aged man stabbed 13 students last month outside a local primary school in Nanping city, in East China's Fujian Province. Eight pupils died at the site, and another five were severely injured. Police investigations show the man had had several unsuccessful romantic encounters before he decided to attack the children, whom he thought were an easier target than adults. The man appealed and asked for a two year reprieve after a local court sentenced him to death. Shortly after the execution, another school stabbing took place in South China's Guangdong Province. A man barged into a local primary school in Leizhou City and attacked 18 students and a teacher before being subdued by the police. The injured have been sent to hospital and the school was evacuated. There is no update on how badly hurt the victims are or if anyone has been killed.
