Public outrage over 'police officer' who hits & beats old lady in Changchun
Updated: 08 Dec 2010
In Changchun city near the Ouya Shopping Center across from the Jilin Province Hospital, in the area between the Ouya #1 elevator exit and the original Jilin Pharmacy, a red Mazda6 was surrounded by hundreds of people at times booing and at times shouting: “Come out, come out…”
A car with the license plate G2E222 hit and knocked down an old lady. Inside the Mazda6 were two people, a man and a woman. While driving out of the parking lot, the man had hit the old lady.
The woman inside the car came out to argue with the old lady and her relative. Suddenly, the man in the car got out and attacked the old lady. Passersby who saw this recorded the old lady being attacked on their mobile phones. At the time, the people who had seen this only numbered under 20.
Angrily, they immediately began arguing with the man driving the red Mazda6 which later progressed to this driver of the Mazda6 wanting to drive off only to be intercepted and stopped at the location I first mentioned. Throughout all of this, it is said that this person’s arrogant attitude is what pissed off even more people, [saying things like] “I am police”, “if there is anything I have, it is money”, etc. He had gotten out of the car and beaten the old lady three times, was unruly in his speech, proclaiming “if there is anything I have, it is money, so today I beat you [and so what]“.
This "police officer" and his car were surrounded by thousands of angry people, with the angry crowds trapping this “police officer” in his car for up to 5 hours, and during this time, the sounds of protest were everywhere. Onlookers including the elderly, children, and youth one after another denounced this “police officer’s” atrocious behavior, and there were more and more passersby joining the protesting crowd until the Mazda6 was trapped there for 5 hours.
The police line set up by the police was broken through by the crowd and they began to attack the car. At around 5:15pm, the couple in the car had been taken away by the Chaoyang district police, and the red Mazda6 was already thoroughly smashed.
A Mazda6 with the Baicheng license plate G2E222 hit an old lady while backing up. The middle-aged woman passenger got out of the car to curse and yell at the old lady who had been hit, but seeing that the old lady was not easily swayed, the male driver got off the car, grabbed the old lady’s hair, and beat the old lady with his fists, the old lady’s face immediately covered with blood.
Onlookers were shocked when they saw that the attacker was actually wearing a police uniform!! Soon, the old lady’s family rushed to the scene, and along with the angry crowd of over a thousand people surrounded the Mazda6, shouting that they were going to beat the driver. Seeing this, the driver and woman hid and locked themselves inside the car.
Soon afterward, the impressive Dongbei people began to be impressive, violently smashing the Mazda6, with unidentified objects flying towards the Mazda6. At this moment, it felt like everyone had experience in the artillery corps…camera flashes, and then the anti-riot JC and journalists arrived but it was not obvious that order had been maintained. The injured old lady was sent to the hospital.
Before this incident, the driver had declared that he was not afraid of trouble because money doesn’t matter to him.
