Four US university tutors are recovering in hospital after they were stabbed by an unknown assailant at a public park in China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Iowa Cornell College instructors were injured in a “serious incident” during a daytime visit to the park in Jilin province, northern China, a college statement said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iowa Representative Adam Zabner said his brother, David, was one of the four injured in the incident, which he described as a stabbing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said the group had been visiting a local temple on Monday when they were attacked by a man with a knife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mr Zabner said his brother had been stabbed in the arm and was recovering in hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“He has not yet been released this morning but he’s doing ok,” he told CBS News.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A US State Department spokesperson told the BBC they were aware of reports of a stabbing incident in Jilin, but could not provide more information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cornell College said the four instructors had been teaching “as part of a partnership with a university in China”. The group had been accompanied by a member of that university at the time of their visit to the park on Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chinese authorities are yet to respond on the incident, however images of the aftermath have been shared on Chinese social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Images circulating appear to show at least three people bleeding and lying on the ground.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
