Six dead in kindergarten stabbing in China

Six people have been killed and one injured in a stabbing attack at a kindergarten in China's southeastern Guangdong province, police told the BBC.

Police said they arrested a 25-year-old man surnamed Wu in Lianjiang City.

The victims are three children, a teacher and two parents, AFP reported, citing a city government spokeswoman.

The attack happened on Monday at 07:40 local time (23:40 Sunday GMT).

The author was arrested at 08:00 and the police described this case as an "intentional attack".

A shop owner who works near the garden told the BBC that the surrounding area has been cordoned off.

The attack has sparked widespread conversation across Chinese social media platforms, with many users responding with shock.

Violent crime is relatively rare in China, but the country has seen a number of knife attacks in recent years, including some at schools./ CNA
