Six people were killed and one wounded in a kindergarten stabbing in southern China’s Guangdong province on Monday, local officials said.

“The victims include one teacher, two parents and three students,” said a spokeswoman for the city government in Lianjiang, where the incident took place.

Other videos shot by passersby claiming to show the crime scene were swiftly removed from video-sharing platform Douyin and Twitter-like Weibo.Violent crime has been on the rise as the economy has grown in recent decades and the gap between rich and poor has widened rapidly.The attacks have forced authorities to step up security and prompted calls for more research into the root causes of such violent acts.

In April 2021, two children were killed and 16 others wounded when a knife-wielding man entered a kindergarten in southern China. And in November 2019, a man climbed a kindergarten wall in southwest Yunnan province and sprayed people with a corrosive liquid, wounding 51 of them, mostly students.
