Five young children have been hurt at a school in north-eastern China after a man attacked them with a hammer before killing himself.
It was the third such incident in China in as many days.
The man, said to be a local farmer, grabbed two children before setting himself on fire at the pre-school in Shandong province's Weifang city.
The children were pulled to safety, and all five - plus an injured teacher - were said to be stable in hospital.
China is reeling from a spate of apparent copy-cat attacks in schools.
On Thursday, 28 children - most of them aged around four - and three adults were attacked by an unemployed man wielding a knife at a nursery school in Jiangsu province, eastern China. Five of the children were taken to hospital in a critical condition.

They must have copied the Americans they aspire to be, right Pete? :roll:
 
Those poor children from article it seem that this has been the third attack this month.. My I am glad that the teacher was able to pull them away.
