GUANGZHOU - A migrant worker in Chaozhou, Guangdong province, stabbed one doctor to death and seriously injured two other hospital personnel on Thursday, in yet another incident arising from strained doctor-patient relations.
Huang Shuijin, 32, from Jiangxi province, rushed into the Chaozhou Men's Hospital, where he had been treated for prostatitis, bearing three knives. He stabbed one of his doctors, inflicting serious injuries.
He then stabbed the vice-president of the hospital and another doctor, who tried to stop him. The vice-president was killed, while the second doctor was injured.
Huang had been treated by doctors at the hospital since October and had spent some 3,000 yuan ($473). He first tried to obtain a refund, claiming the treatment had been ineffective. After his demand was refused, he carried out the attack, he was cited by the Chaozhou police as saying.
He also told the police that before the hospital attack, he had killed the wife of his manager at a kitchenware parts plant.
Why did he kill the woman? My guess is that he blamed her for the "infection" (were they having an affair?).
