The latest in a string of knife and bomb attacks on Chinese schools took place in the southern province of Guangdong on Monday morning, as a 25-year-old man used a knife to assault a privately-operated kindergarten.
A city government spokeswoman said a teacher, two parents, and three students were killed in the attack.
Security officials in the city of Lianjiang said the assailant, identified only by his surname “Wu,” was taken into custody after the attack. The school is located in a small township called Hengshan administered by the Lianjiang municipal government.
One Chinese news network quoted a witness who said the assailant had a child who was struck by a vehicle last week. According to this report, the driver of the vehicle was one of the adults stabbed to death on Monday morning. The attack took place at roughly 7:40 a.
