A man murdered three people and wounded 15 in a knife attack at a supermarket in the Chinese megacity of Shanghai, police said Tuesday.
The suspect surnamed Lin,37-year-old was arrested at the supermarket shortly after the incident on Monday night, local police said in a statement.
Police said the man went on the rampage in anger caused by a “personal financial dispute”.
The other 15 did not sustain life-threatening wounds.
Violent knife crime is not uncommon in China, where firearms are strictly controlled, with a number of similar attacks at schools in recent years.
