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.
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
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.
If that child is mine, I must revenge you just like that.
Disgusting act … he is animal… punish him.. ????????

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.
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.
Your 21 years old , you could have threatened the boy with some words instead of being the same like the boy
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..
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.
animal
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. . .
Chinese men are so frustrated of the tough competitive life there dont ignite their anger or they will kill you
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.
شکیل احمد read properly and understand ok
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.

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.
