A vehicle ploughed into students and pedestrians outside a primary school in China's Hunan province on Tuesday morning and several people were injured, state media said.
Footage obtained by Reuters showed multiple injured lying on the road outside the school. In another video, a man is surrounded by a crowd and apparently beaten with sticks and rods. A separate clip shows a man handcuffed and being held down on wet cement by a figure in uniform.
Reuters was able to confirm the location from buildings' facades, road layout and signage of the school that match satellite imagery and file image. Reuters was not able to verify the date.
CCTV and other state media reported the vehicle hit people outside the Yongan Primary school in Changde city as students were coming in for the day.
Many were injured in the incident, CCTV reported. A more detailed tally of the injuries was not available, and it was not immediately clear what had caused the crash or whether it was intentional.
