State media says "several students and adults were injured and fell to the ground".

Summary

A white SUV was driven into a crowd outside Yong’an Primary School in Hunan, China, injuring several students and adults.

Parents and bystanders subdued the driver, who was handed to police.

While no life-threatening injuries were reported, this is the third crowd attack in China this week, raising alarms about public safety.

The incidents have ignited online discussions about the growing trend of “taking revenge on society,” where individuals target strangers in response to personal grievances.

        I was going to ask if this is common and just get reported recently or if something was going on.

        Is it fairly “normal”?

      Probably economic and sociological issues.

      Low mental health access, lack of cultural concern/respect for alienated groups, lack of welfare and social safety nets.

      The usual stuff that makes people feel like they have no future, and resentful of others.

        I was told this is not an issue in China. /S

        But actually this is a serious issue and as far as western readers are concerned, this perception issue speaks to the filtered way media / news makes it out of the region
