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.
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.
Qin Guangrong, Communist Party chief of Yunnan province where Kunming is located, said the eight attackers had 'originally wanted to participate in jihad'.

Can I get off the floor now?
A bit harsh, don't ya think, Bill? Not ALL assault knives, just the real sharp, and high capacity ones. I agree black handles are quite deadly, but black with pearl inlay, can be used not only for hunting, but I hear they're a major contributor to cannibalism, and corps dismemberment. And those "little" ones can be just as deadly, just slower. And, handle locks are a must.
Are you trying to ban assault knives? Well I, for one, think it high time that all those knives ... especially the ones with black handles ... be banned and that criminals not be allowed to own them -- not even the little knives anyone can get from Cedar Point without a background check!
:~)
Just funnin'.
Well, apparently China needs better knife regulation. I can't believe they just let people run around stabbing other people, don't they realize knives are responsible for thousands of deaths annually? More, and stricter knife regulation is the only way to stop this madness.
