Beijing, November 22
A speeding car ploughed into several students crossing a road in front a primary school in China’s northeast Liaoning province, killing at least five of them and injuring 18 others, nearly two months after a similar incident claimed 11 lives.
The injured students of No 2 primary school in Jianchang county, Huludao city have been taken to hospitals, China Daily reported. The number of casualties was yet to be determined though initial reports said five persons had been killed. The driver has been arrested, the report said.
The daily’s website carried pictures of several people lying on the road and the police detaining the driver. Some videos circulating on social media showed a car ramming into the wrong side of the road and crashing into students. Another footage showed at least two children lying in a pool of blood on the street with others screaming in the background. The cause of the incident was under investigation. — PTI
