Dozens killed in Zhuhai, China, by driver who rammed car into crowd ahead of army air show, police say

Bangkok — A driver killed 35 people and severely injured another 43 when he deliberately rammed his car into people exercising at a sports center in the southern Chinese city of Zhuhai, police said Tuesday. Police had detained a 62-year-old man at the sports center in the southern Chinese city of Zhuhai following the ramming late Monday, on the eve of the country's premier aviation exhibition by the People's Liberation Army that's hosted annually in the city.

Police identified the man only by his family name of Fan, consistent with the practice by authorities in China.

Fan was discovered in the car with a knife, with wounds to his neck thought to be self-harm injuries, according to the statement. He is unconscious and receiving medical care.
