On July 10, a horrific homicide occurred in a kindergarten in Lianjiang, Guangdong, in which the murderer, Wu, armed with a firewood knife, violently slashed at innocent people, killing six innocent people and injuring one others.
Fortunately, the police quickly launched an operation, and the suspect Wu has been arrested. As soon as this news was exposed, it immediately caused an uproar on the Internet. People have speculated about the murderer's motives and tried to uncover the hidden truth behind it...
Man with knife to slash people
Although it is now summer vacation, many parents are too busy to take care of their children, so they choose to send their children to kindergarten to be supervised by teachers.
At 7:42 a.m., it was time for the children to get ready for school. A large group of children and parents gathered at the entrance of the kindergarten, as well as the teachers who were responsible for picking up the children.
They are doing as usual, everything is going according to plan.
Suddenly, a man wearing gray short sleeves and black pants, Wu, appeared, holding a firewood knife in his hand, looking angry, and walking a little swayingly, probably drinking.
However, not many people noticed him at this time, only an attentive mother noticed his abnormality, and she whispered to her child to hurry into the classroom.
When the child jumped into the classroom, the mother rushed forward to take the knife from the man's hand. However, the man's strength was so great that he pushed the mother to the ground at once.
"Everyone, take the children and hide!" Hearing someone shouting, everyone noticed the man holding a firewood knife.
Seeing the child's mother being pushed to the ground, there was a man with a knife standing next to her. Before parents and teachers could figure out what was going on, they froze and looked at each other.
They instinctively keep the children behind them and want to protect them from harm.
The man stood in place and glanced around coldly. Suddenly, as if he had gone crazy, he rushed into the crowd and cut people when he saw them. He brandished his firewood knife wildly, and even the weak children were not spared.
The scene instantly fell into chaos, and the crowd was filled with screams. Some have become revenants under his knife and have fallen in pools of blood. Some hid in corners crying, fear and despair intertwined on their faces.
Others picked up their children, pulled their legs and ran, and some even lost a shoe in a panic.
At this critical moment, two brave female kindergarten teachers did not care about their own safety, and directly rushed forward to throw the murderer to the ground, snatching the murder weapon in his hand. Their bravery prevented further casualties.
Not long after, the police arrived at the scene, pressed Wu to the ground, and then escorted him to a police car. However, Wu didn't seem to have the intention of resisting, just cursing something in his mouth.
Judging from the video that circulated, the whole scene was covered with blood stains all over the ground. Several victims fell in pools of blood without any movement.
The most heart-wrenching thing is that a child dressed in red is lying in a pool of blood, facing the sky on his back, his face is covered in blood, and he can't help but want to turn his head.
Even across the screen, it seems that you can smell the strong smell of blood and feel the despair of those children, parents and staff.
Many people who witnessed the whole incident left messages online. One said: "Among the victims were two adults, four children, and one of them was a sixty-year-old. ”
Another said: "The scene was very bloody, and a teacher's leg was broken by the murderer. ”
Some people even broke the news that Wu carried out this killing operation out of revenge!
Why is the murderer so cruel?
Parents sending their children to school should be an ordinary routine, but they are separated from their children in such a cruel way. It is impossible to imagine how much pain and harm will be suffered by the families who have been killed.
Netizens are also angrily denouncing the murderer: how much hatred and resentment the murderer has, he only 25 years old did such a cruel act, even the children who have no chicken power will not let go.
They have even said that killing pays for their lives, hoping to make the murderer pay the price he deserves for his cruel deeds.
Today, the case is still pending. Regarding the reason for Wu's murder, there are two theories circulating on the Internet.
One theory is that the trigger for this case was that the conflict between the two children was not properly handled.
Wu's child also attends this kindergarten, and once his child got into a fight with another child, and the school asked the parents of both sides to mediate, but the teacher was a little biased.
This led to Wu's dissatisfaction, which eventually led him to take revenge with a knife.
There is also a theory that Wu's child was hit by a parent's car, the school did not care, and the perpetrator did not compensate or apologize, which caused Wu's anger.
The parents of a student in the kindergarten hit Wu's child when they drove to pick up their children, but neither the school nor the perpetrators took any measures, neither compensated nor apologized, and even had a bad attitude.
This aroused Wu's anger, and he also made such a horrific act of retaliation.
For these circulating statements, a netizen felt very indignant and incomprehensible about Wu's behavior, and he sighed: "Since someone bullies you, you go to the person who bullied you, what kind of indiscriminate attack?" Victims who have nothing to do with you, how innocent they are! ”
Moreover, Wu's choice to commit murder when his child was in school must have been planned in advance, and the gate of the school was open at this time, which was convenient for him to enter the campus to commit the crime. This shows his cruelty and ruthlessness, which makes people feel fear and anger.
Whatever the reason, 25-year-old Wu made such a crazy move, even if it happened for a reason, it cannot be forgiven. The consequences of his impulsive behavior not only destroyed his own family, but also the families of the innocent children who died tragically.
The occurrence of this tragedy is heart-wrenching, and for those families who have lost their children, it is impossible to imagine the pain and grief they endured.
Some people also questioned, what were the school security personnel doing at the time of the incident. Why didn't anyone stop it?
In fact, the security guards in kindergartens are older, and they are mainly responsible for watching the gate and preventing children from running out. For such a vicious emergency, they really have limited strength and are difficult to deal with.
The security function in the kindergarten is not strong, and there are hidden dangers in safety. This case is a profound reflection of this problem, and they are simply unable to resist such an emergency.
It is hoped that this incident will raise awareness of the importance of security in kindergartens and other special places and strengthen protective measures for children.
After all, this is not the first time the kindergarten tragedy has happened.
Taixing kindergarten homicide
On April 29, 2010, Xu, an unemployed vagrant, because of his dismissal from the company and the unsatisfactory events in his life, he broke into the kindergarten class of Taixing Town Center with a machete in discouragement, which was an incredible scene.
According to that day, he woke up early and his wife left early to work. He wrote a "suicide note" at home and then called his daughter.
He told his daughter that he was going out and let her take good care of her mother. Things are well organized.
After preparing everything, Xu wrapped a 20-centimeter machete in cloth and walked out of the house.
He said he chose to go to kindergarten because the children couldn't resist. Of the 29 children in the small class, all 29 were slashed by him, as well as two teachers and a security guard.
During his murder, a child tugged at the corner of his coat and pleaded, "Uncle, please don't hurt us." However, the knife in Xu's hand eventually landed on the child. The whole process was chilling and heartbreaking.
In the end, Xu was subdued by the police who rushed in and the crowd who heard the shouting, and he was brought to justice.
The court sentenced Xu to death in the first instance. However, Xu was not convinced and appealed on the grounds that he had not caused death. The second-instance judgment upheld the first-instance judgment, which is regarded as final.
Zheng kindergarten homicide in southwestern Shaanxi
In a kindergarten in Linchang Village, Shaanxi Province, a man armed with a sharp kitchen knife broke into it wantonly. He stepped into the principal's office mercilessly, taking the principal's life, and blood stained the room.
Then, he walked out of the office and, with a cruel callous mentality, unfolded a horrific massacre of the entire campus.
For a time, countless innocent children fell dying on the ground, and the kindergarten instantly became a bloody and miserable hell scene, as if an island stood in a pool of blood.
It is understood that the murderer's name was Wu, when he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, and the fate of living soon fell on him mercilessly. However, his psychology is twisted to the extreme, blaming this society for his hopelessness.
He believes that he cannot bear the pain of death alone, so he chooses these innocent children as his target for revenge.
The case killed ten people and injured more than two dozen, seven of whom turned out to be innocent children who were powerless to resist.
The kindergarten was originally a place full of laughter, however, with Wu's atrocities, it became a purgatory on earth that people could not look at directly.
Wu told the police what he called the reason for the murder.
It turned out that the scene that happened in kindergarten had planted the seeds of hatred in his heart. At that time, a snake appeared in kindergartens, which is not uncommon in rural schools.
The children were scared when they saw the snake, so the principal arranged for someone to drive the snake away. However, a few days later the snake returned to kindergarten. In desperation, the principal had to order the snake to death.
This should have been a common thing, but it triggered endless thoughts in Wu's heart. He looked for a fortune teller who told him that he was terminally ill because the principal had killed the snake.
Such an explanation completely distorted Wu's psychology, and he decided to take revenge. He broke into the kindergarten and killed the principal.
At this time, Wu, who had fallen into madness, did not stop, he mercilessly slashed towards the surrounding crowd, and everything that could be cut became his target.
After completing this crazy action, Wu chose suicide, ending his twisted and cruel life.
Such school tragedies happen again and again, making people wonder: why do these twisted and crazy criminals choose kindergartens, schools, etc. as their first target for revenge on society?
In addition to the perpetrator's own malice, there are some reasons why kindergarten children are bullied, and most kindergarten security systems are not perfect.
Although such emergencies are unpredictable, we can hold more safety drills. We must realize that children are the flowers of our country and that their safety is even more crucial.
Some kindergartens have inadequate security facilities and lack robust external security systems. Moreover, many security personnel are not aware of emergencies.
In short, the safety management of kindergartens is very important. We hope that kindergartens can strengthen the construction of safety facilities, establish a sound safety management system, and strengthen safety education and training for staff.
Finally, for those families who have been struck suddenly, we sincerely hope that they can come out of their grief and pick themselves up again as soon as possible. We believe that the murderer will be punished as he deserves, and that the law will never let him go unpunished.
Hopefully, such a tragedy will not happen again, we cannot allow terror and violence to erode our campuses! It is our shared responsibility to enable children to grow up in a safe and healthy environment.
