These carps are considered as "monster" in the US. I recently heard that the US government will spend huge fund to fight against these fishzilla. In Cambodia, they're no cheap, the one in the guy's hands would cost at least $10 - $20 because they're imported from China. No local production.

These were first imported from China to the US to be used to clean up the fish farms and hatchery containers by eating the algae and such, until a heavy flood causes some of them to escape. The carps reproduce so fast that they endangered other native fish species as well, therefore threatening the fishing industry in the Great Lakes regions.

Nope, nothing is supporting her. It's all about center of gravity and muscle on her quads.

The policeman is much heavier than the perpetrator, that's why he could put him down so easily.

Why aren't the policemen equipped with a stun-gun? It would very much reduce the risk to a hostage as well as the police confronting a bad guy armed with sharp objects.

I think you're comparing Chinese police to US police. Not every country in the world can equip its police force with hi-tech equipment. I think the policeman isn't specialized in such case (white uniform is not for fighting). Even those guys in para-uniform are military personnel. With 5 to 6 hours of hostage, no specialized police come to the scene? This is weird!

Geeze, wonder what that guy's problem was? Did he know the girl or was it a random attack?

Edit:

Found this:



According to the caption, the girl was the guy's girlfriend, but the guy himself is married. Looks like a lovers' spat gone way, way too far.

The stun gun has been used by the police in the US since the mid-80s. I do not feel it is hi-tech.
