Man Kills 3 Children At A Chinese School, Then Jumps Off The Building.

The new school year in China began Monday with a horrifying attack.
A man stabbed to death three children at a primary school in central China and then committed suicide by jumping off a building, state media reported.
The attacker broke into Dongfang Primary School in Hubei province around 10:20 a.m., Xinhua news agency said, citing the local government.
Wielding a knife, the man stabbed eight students and a teacher before he took his own life, the report said.

Three of the students died, and the six other victims have been hospitalized, Xinhua reported. Two of the students are seriously hurt, it said.
Monday was the first day back at school after the summer vacation for most students in China.
The suspect was a parent of a student, and he attacked the children because the school did not let his daughter register for the new term because she had not completed her summer homework, state broadcaster CCTV reported on its microblog.
The report only gave the man's surname of Chen. It said police are investigating the case.The attack happened in Yunxi county, in the administrative region of Shiyan city.

A member of staff at the local education authority who answered a call from CNN said the only information available was in Xinhua's report. Police in Shiyan didn't answer repeated phone calls.
Xinhua said it wasn't immediately clear how the man got into the school campus.
