******** police detain driver who ‘drove into a crowd’

Police in the southern ******** city of Zhuhai say they have detained a 62-year-old man after he rammed a car into people exercising at a local sports centre and fled.

One of the four hospitals that took in people for treatment said it had more than 20 injured people, state media reported.

Police identified the man only by his family name of Fan, consistent with the practice by ******** authorities.

The police statement said the vehicle knocked down “a number of” of pedestrians on Monday evening.

It was not immediately clear whether it was an ******* or an accident.

No motive was mentioned and police said investigations continued.

The incident occurred on the eve of China’s annual air show in Zhuhai.

The sports centre for the city district of Xiangzhou regularly attracts hundreds of residents.

Following the incident, the centre announced it would be closed until further notice.

Several attacks have taken place in China in which suspects appear to target random people such as schoolchildren.

In October, a 50-year-old man was detained after he allegedly used a ****** to ******* children at a school in Beijing.

Five people were injured.

In September, three people were ******* in a ****** ******* in a Shanghai supermarket.
