Five people hacked to death at Chinese market - just two weeks after 29 were butchered

Five people have been stabbed to death in Changsha, the capital of China's southern Hunan province

Five people have been killed in a knife attack in China just two weeks after 29 were hacked to death in a similar attack in a railway station.


Officials say the killings happened after an argument between two food sellers at a local market


Police officers were called to the scene this morning in Changsha, in China's southern Hunan province, and shot one of the attackers dead.
The fight started in a market after one food seller stabbed another stall owner to death before going on a rampage and killing four others, it has been reported.
Two of the four people died at the scene and the other two died in a hospital, police said.
News of the deaths comes as China is still reeling from a similar knife attack in a railway station in south-eastern Kunming province left 29 dead and 143 injured.

On March 2 police say a gang of knife-wielding Islamists from Xinjiang decided to attack passengers at the station after they were unable to leave the country to wage a holy war.
