A car plowed into a crowd of people outside a primary school in China’s Hunan province, state media reported.
There are no details on casualties yet, but state media reported that “several students and adults were injured and fell to the ground.”
Several people were sent to the hospital.
The driver of the vehicle – a white SUV – was reportedly apprehended by parents and school security personnel and handed over to police.
A video from the scene, posted on a private WeChat account, shows several children lying on the ground and panicked students fleeing the scene with their school bags.
The incident was the third seemingly random attack on a crowd in China in a week.
At least 35 people were killed in a car attack in southern China on November 12, and eight people were killed in a knife attack at a school in eastern China last weekend.
Discussions about the social phenomenon “taking revenge on society” where people act on personal grievances by attacking strangers.
