A court in Changde city, located in China’s Hunan province, has sentenced a man to death for driving his car into a crowd outside a primary school last month, injuring over two dozen people. Huang Wen, who was detained at the scene, injured 30 people, including 18 children, during the incident on November 19.


Further, the court also stated that after crashing his car into the crowd, Huang got out of his vehicle and attacked bystanders with a weapon before being apprehended. He was sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve by the court. The attack was motivated by Huang’s frustration over financial losses and disputes with his family.
