BEIJING - A 20-year-old man angered at recent surgery killed one person and wounded five in a stabbing rampage at two hospitals in eastern China, state press said on Tuesday.
The man, surnamed Zhou, entered a hospital in the city of Hangzhou, near Shanghai, with a pair of tailor's scissors on Monday afternoon, stabbing two staff members before fleeing, the Beijing News said.
Shortly after, he went to a nearby clinic where he attacked doctors and nurses, killing one person and injuring three others, it added.
Zhou was unhappy about a surgical procedure he underwent in Jul, it said, without giving other details.
He was arrested by police.
The rampage was the second mass stabbing in China since Saturday, when a migrant worker in central China stabbed or slashed 12 people and then himself, according to Xinhua new agency.
That attack in the city of Shiyan in Hubei province was carried out by a 46-year-old farmer, the report said. His victims were reported to be in stable condition.
