A 21-year-old man from Sichuan province was detained by police for 15 days after brutally attacking a seven-year-old boy on a bus.
The incident occurred at about 11am on April 27 when the young boy surnamed Guo went home by himself on a bus in Suining in Sichuan, China News Service reported. The lad was reportedly being noisy on the bus and lightly kicked a strange man three times for fun.
As seen on the video clip, the man, also surnamed Guo, suddenly became enraged – grabbing the boy and throwing him down on to the floor, then stomping on him three times in revenge.
He was stopped by other passengers, who called the police. The man ended up being detained for 15 days and fined 1,000 yuan (US$157) for attacking someone aged under 14.
The boy was sent to hospital. The left side of his face was injured but he was fortunate not to suffer any bone fracture. Police added that if the boy is found to have more injuries, the attacker could face a heavier penalty, according to a statement.
The attacker later told Chongqing Evening News he had offered the boy his seat on the bus but the boy ignored him. He admitted that he had lost his mind after being kicked by the lad. He apologized to the victim and his family and said he would pay the boy’s medical expenses.
Most Chinese citizens who commented on the incident on social media criticized the man’s reckless and violent behavior, but others blamed the boy’s parents for having not taught him to have better manners while riding on a public vehicle.
The boy’s mother told media that her son was well-behaved at home and had performed extremely well at school. The boy’s father said he would sue the attacker.
Before it happens I tell the child, if you hit me I will hit you back. They don’t have to understand English. They understand the tone of my voice and the look on my face. So far it works. And if the child’s parents are around they control their child. Also I blame the parents.
so you are just like that man who behaved that way with the child. your comments reflects that you do not think the man aggression was bad.

شکیل احمد read properly and understand ok
Regardless child’s behaviour.. After he is little child. He will learn the ethics with the passage of time but that man was not a child he should not have done such inhumane act with kid. In fact he had to teach the kid not to misbehave.
Chinese men are so frustrated of the tough competitive life there dont ignite their anger or they will kill you
Childs behaviour is not acceptable . ..BUT the way the grown up behaved. . . Uncivilized babaric behaviour shocked me. . . Shame on that devil. . For gods sake he is only 7 years. . .
animal
It’s attempt to kill. He should be given serious punishment. And kids parents are to be punished for not taking responsibility of the child.
That guy is crazy.! !.But I should say that some children do whatever they want in the passive view of their parents.. Definitely he will not do it again..traumatic way to learn not to bother other people. .Poor boy..
Your 21 years old , you could have threatened the boy with some words instead of being the same like the boy
Those blaming the little kid for wrongdoing are crazy morons……we should not expect all mindful and wise actions from a 7 years old kid……that young man had to control himself. Children are innocent. They do not have any ill intentions. Simply the man lost his conscience.

Shakeel is right … it seems like you don’t have any understanding that children are after all children but being an elder the big guy shouldn’t have reacted like this.
Zeeshan Ahmed read the last sentence of what i’ve said. the two of u didnt understand my comments. i am not one sided. the boy is stupid,rude but of course as a man he shouldnt do that. read properly bfore u say what u want
Kids are kids. This man is vicious animal. Lets see how brave he is when he face someone of his own size. IDIOT
Shakeel Ahmad have no time to read complete comment
Disgusting act … he is animal… punish him.. ????????
If that child is mine, I must revenge you just like that.
Nowadays parents are forgetting to teach the basics discipline for kids ! This is the outcome of it, whatever that person shouldn’t bang the kid even. The culture of Chinese are so rude since they don’t follow any religion nowadays they forgot to learn the basic ethics of life.
That’s probably the right thing to do. Yes the man overdid it, but the parents are wrong too. It’s public place, there’s something that you shouldn’t have done there. The kid might not know it, but the parents did
Zippy Zap True, the boy might get kill or worst with no attacker just got accident
Let it be a lesson for the kids and the boy
Blame both of them…
شکیل احمد not that hard but yes I would do same.. .
Someone got to teach how to behave right. .
Its good the boy kicked a man…
If same behavior with dog or some violent deadly animal happened boy wouldn’t be alive.. .
Its better learned lesson in hard way than getting life threatening situation later…
And also its natural process the elder teaches surviving skills and behavior to young people…
Not in this way but done by specially by parents
even in primitive world its done.
Wew lucky child… If it was me I’d throw him from the bus… U don’t mess someone in depression.. And if his dad sued me… I’d sue him back for suing me…. Fack ya
شکیل احمد I don’t think the man’s aggression was bad.. U never know what the man himself is going through… And may be its a lesson for the kid.. Or he might have continued it to future since his parents had no idea about it… And yeah fack ya too
Hey… that is just a kid man…!!! That kid is still innocent… but atleast that man has some sense… he should have let it go… maybe chage the sit or some where away from that kid but that man attacking that poor kid is not really good… and you people… stop blaming the parents okay… kids are innocent and they love to fool around… poeple before saying sth think twice before…. Its glad to hear there isn’t any bon bone fractures….
the child does not have manners if his parents are around his parents who should be punished for being negligent
The boy is only 7 yrs. Old bullying a grown man, wait till he grows up..
