Westerner among six people stabbed in latest ‘terrorist’ knife attack targeting Chinese train station

A middle-aged Westerner is among six victims wounded in a knife attack at a Chinese train station today, according to witnesses. Two women and three men, including a European man his 50s, were said to be among those injured by assailants wielding foot-and-a-half-long knives at Guangzhou Railway Station in Guangdong province. Armed officers shot and wounded one of the attackers, said Guangzhou police. Local media reported that a second suspect was captured fleeing the scene. Officials are blaming the attack on 'terrorists' from Xinjiang, a mainly Muslim western province in the grip of a separatist insurgency. Police later denied a Westerner had been involved in the attack, despite the witnesses' reports.
