Knife attacker kills 7 children, wounds 12 in China
2018-04-28
[DAWN] At least seven students have been stabbed to death and 12 injured in a knife attack outside a school in northern China, BBC reported quoting officials.

The knife-wielding man attacked the students near a secondary school in Mizhi County in Shaanxi province as they were heading home for the day, officials were quoted as saying.

A suspect is said to be in police custody.

Photos on social media showed several young students lying on the floor, surrounded by shocked onlookers.

A local government statement said the attack happened at Mizhi County Number Three secondary school, at around 18:10 local time (10:10 GMT).

Their exact ages have not been given, but reports suggest they may be middle school children, which would make them aged 12 to 15, reported BBC.
