Tue Nov 12 12:23:03 UTC 2024: ## Man Kills 35 in Deliberate Car Ramming at Chinese Sports Centre

**Zhuhai, China -** A man deliberately rammed his car into a crowd of people exercising at a sports centre in the southern Chinese city of Zhuhai on Monday, killing 35 and injuring 43 others. The incident occurred on the eve of the country’s major aviation exhibition hosted annually in the city.

Police identified the driver as a 62-year-old man named Fan, who was found in the car with self-inflicted wounds to his neck. He is currently unconscious and receiving medical care. Initial investigations suggest Fan was motivated by dissatisfaction with the financial settlement of his divorce.

The attack occurred at the Xiangzhou district sports centre, a popular spot for residents to run, play soccer, and dance. The centre has been closed until further notice.

While initial reports of the incident were heavily censored on Chinese social media platforms like Weibo, videos of the aftermath circulated on X (formerly Twitter), showing dozens of people lying injured on the running track.

Chinese authorities often censor social media ahead of major events, such as the National People’s Congress, to control information flow. This incident comes after a string of attacks in China where individuals targeted random people, including schoolchildren.
