A man who attacks passengers is shot injured by police in railway station in Xi'an, Shaanxi province on Wednesday

Police shot and killed a man who attacked passengers at Xi'an Railway Station early on Wednesday morning.

According to the railway public security bureau in the capital city of Shaanxi province, the man was seen throwing cement bricks at passengers in the ticket office at around 6 am and police were called.

The man did not obey an order to stop and continued his attack before being shot and injured by police who warned him several times before opening fire, sources said.

The man was sent to a local hospital where he later died. Railway police confirmed on its micro blog that the deceased was a Uygur.

There is no information about whether passengers or policemen were injured.

The station has returned to normal and the case is under further investigation.

China's law rules that police can shoot anyone seriously endangering the life of citizens.

Shot for throwing a cement brick?

A single person throwing stones should be shot dead. A rioting group of people throwing hundreds of stones are freedom fighters.

They could have used rubber bullets.

So OP what is your problem with police action?You clearly posted your "news" because you have problems with the way police reacted.So what exactly police should do in such situation according to you? Do nothing maybe and let him kill people?Invite him politely for cup of coffee?Beg him to stop maybe?And why I have the feeling you will be OK if police shot such people in any Western countries.Hint for you-in USA such person would be shot at spot by the police.

why not muslims live in peace ? from Australia to USA god damn stop this madness

Good. Any person who causes unrest must be dealt with. Any person who bodily harms innocent people should be killed. Be they Uyghur, Han, Dan or Man.

When dealing with terrorists，Russia government is the toughest and I like that，USA is tougher，China is least tough and unsatisfied by the public，Europe isnot tough enough and maybe cause serious social problem in the future. I donot hate the Muslim，there are many good men who are Muslim，but any mad and crazy religious madness should be sent to hell.

Shot for throwing a cement brick?

He wasn't shot for just throwing cement bricks. He was shot for violently threatening and endangering innocent people and policemen and continued to refuse to comply to police orders to settle down.

Due to strict gun control in China, generally these extremists can't get access to firearms or explosives. Therefore most attacks in China are knife or blunt weapons related. The intention to kill and main civilians for political/religious purpose is still there. Just because he didn't have a gun doesn't mean he wasn't a terrorist.
