(CHINA DAILY/ASIA NEWS NETWORK) - A nurse who was brutally attacked along with three other staff members at a Shenzhen hospital remained in intensive care on Tuesday.
Ms Ye Huan suffered deep lacerations to her back, head, arm and fingers when a patient went on the rampage with a knife at Pengcheng Hospital.
A doctor, a security guard and a guide were also injured but are now recovering, Mr Guo Bingli, director of the private hospital in the city's Luohu district, said at a news conference.
Luohu police said they have detained 43-year-old Ou Changjun in connection with the attack. In July, Ou spent more than 7,000 yuan ($1,100) at the hospital on a treatment for rhinitis.
