At least 35 people have been killed in a car attack in southern China, believed to be the deadliest known act of public violence in the country in decades.
Police say a man crashed his car into a stadium in Zhuhai on Monday where he ran down groups of people exercising on the sports track.
Local media report the "serious and vicious attack" also injured 45 people - among them elderly and children.
Police say the 62-year-old driver, identified as a Mr Fan, appeared to have acted out of unhappiness over a divorce settlement.
Police said in a statement he was arrested as he tried to flee the Sports Center and is in a coma due to self-inflicted wounds.
