Madman Storms Police Station, Kills 5

(Shanghai, China) Attacking a police station and killing five gun-toting officers seems improbable. According to this report, however, that's exactly what happened.
The 28-year-old man, surnamed Yang, set a fire outside a gate of the building, then rushed inside and began stabbing officers, the Shanghai Public Security Bureau said in a news release.

Five officers died after being taken to a hospital, while four other police officers and a security guard were hurt, the statement said. Some had chest wounds and others had bloodied faces, the official Xinhua News Agency reported, citing a witness surnamed Yi.
Yang was arrested.
