At Least 13 Dead

At least 13 people were killed and another 10 injured in the southern Chinese city of Zhuhai when a car rammed into a crowd of people.

The incident occurred on Tuesday evening local time ahead of the opening of a major military expo in the city.

The driver of the car has been taken into custody, but police have not yet released any information about his identity or motive.

The injured were taken to nearby hospitals, where they are being treated for their injuries.

Eyewitnesses said they saw the car speed through a red light and plow into the crowd of people.

One witness said the car was traveling at a high speed and did not appear to brake before hitting the crowd.

Police are still investigating the incident and have not released any further details.

The Chinese government has condemned the attack and has vowed to bring the perpetrators to justice.

Other Incidents

This is not the first time that a car has been used to target a crowd of people in China.

In 2017, a group of terrorists drove a car into a crowd of people in Beijing, killing five people.

And in 2016, a man drove a car into a crowd of people in Shanghai, killing one person and injuring dozens more.

These incidents have raised concerns about the safety of public gatherings in China.

The Chinese government has since taken steps to increase security at public events.
