\"Kunming<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

The Washington Times<\/a> reports that 27 people are dead and another 109 are injured at the Kunming Railway Station in Yunnan province. All that damage from a group of men with knives. Luckily there were some good guys with guns or it could have been worse;<\/p>\n

Local television station K6 says that several of the attackers were shot by police and that victims were being transported to local hospitals.<\/p>\n

Photos circulating online showed scattered luggage and bodies lying on the floor in blood.<\/p>\n

The motive behind the attack was not immediately clear, but China has seen a number of mass stabbings and other attacks carried out by people bearing grudges against society.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I guess some folks, when they want to kill a lot of people, will use just about anything. Even if it’s some what tiring to kill and injure 136 people with knives.<\/p>\n

Xinhua News Agency<\/a> puts the number at 28 dead and 113 injured.<\/p>\n

Chen Guizhen, a 50-year-old woman, told Xinhua at the hospital that her husband Xiong Wenguang, 59, was killed in the attack.<\/p>\n

“Why are the terrorists so cruel? ” moaned Chen, holding her husband’s ID card in blood with her trembling hands.<\/p>\n

The couple, both farmers from the Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Prefecture, bought Sunday tickets to the eastern province of Zhejiang for their new urban jobs and planned to stay over the waiting room.<\/p>\n

“I found his ID card on his body. I can’t believe he just left me,” she cried.<\/p>\n

Yang Haifei, a local resident of Yunnan, told Xinhua that he was attacked and sustained injuries on his chest and back.<\/p>\n

Yang said he was buying a ticket when he saw a group of people rush into the station, most of them in black, and start attacking others.<\/p>\n

“I saw a person come straight at me with a long knife and I ran away with everyone,” he said, adding that people who were slower were severely injured.<\/p>\n

“They just fell on the ground,” he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
