A 14-year-old schoolboy slew two elementary schoolers, aged 8 and 9, in order to fund his purchase of a music player.
He retrieved 6 yuan (less than a dollar) from one of the slain boys.
The boy apparently targeted the pair as they were traveling to school, and attacked them with a blade, killing both; all they were carrying was 6 yuan, which he took.
Soon after the parents of the murdered boys reported the matter to police, who then arrested the culprit for murder and robbery.
It is not clear whether he was able to afford his MP3 player with the money stolen.

Well, after living in China for nearly five years, all i can say is life is cheap here and some of these bastards only think with dollars and cents. Just plain fucked up
It's sad that stuff like this happens, but it's unavoidable. I can't begin to imagine the feelings of the parents, friends, and other children who think they are safe. No doubt many will be traumatized and fear their surroundings more because of this. Society as a whole really needs to take a good look at itself and at least try to figure out how it can prevent more crimes like these from happening. May their organs go to deserving people.
Epic loot
the similarity between this reality and anime scares me O_o like, c'mon, children killing one another, and for a stupid reason too?! this sounds like 511 kinderheim to me ...>_>
again with the monetary system....humanity needs to go into a Resource Based Economy aka venus project
Kids these days. When will they ever learn.
Easy to kill -> bad loot
MMOG 101
so... what about the boss fights like killing government officials?
lots of loot?
they won't carry it around on them
Image source anyone?
Hmm ive heard worse
Shit like this happens everywhere in the world. It's not the first time people have killed over something stupid and it doesn't just happen in China. I don't see any basis for these "China is fucked up" or "sick country" comments. Trolls fail.
It would be more cost-effective if you had 5 prisoners stand in a row and just shoot them all with one bullet.
stupid amerikkkans
Oh. I thought by the title he was a for-hire assassin with a dollar hit fee.
Sad, sad.
I hope that psycho-enriched bastard of a kid dies for what he has done, seriously he doesn't even deserve to continue living.
No one is acting out their life ambition, networking, boycoting, morality, or their own talents in order to further future generations anymore. Life is full selfish people who say the world is a place that is fucked up, but they don't take any action for fear deep with in their own hearts for a negative change that "could indeed happen." But in my mind and body I believe only those willing enough to shed their own blood for others must take action even if the burden of sin rests upon ones own sholders and blood stains vibrant on their hands. Take up agressive action draw your souls sword and defend the generation to come only then will things change.
chinese people like him will be scattered all over hell
my first thought was: he played games and wanted to "drop" money :/ well just saying that
Fuck this world we live in. I hope the sun explodes and kills all of us.
Must've been a gold farmer.
lulzy
well we can definitely blame this on the economy
I know it's good to use sarcasm and humor in articles and all but the last line is kind of sick...
It is not clear whether he was able to afford his MP3 player with the money stolen.... WHAT THE FUCK??? WHO IS THE FUCKING DUMBASS WHO MADE UP THIS SENTENCE AFTER THAT KIND OF NEWS???
...dang, that's terrible... IS THAT ALL YOU CAN SAY???
FUCK YOU HUMAN KIND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At least he killed shotas and not lolis.
was his first ipod stolen?
I'm disgusted.
Also, Litchi Hikari Club ftw
Can no one get anything right?
Steal things ---> kill people.
Goddamn kids.
I'm sure the half dozen or so party higher-up will enjoy the youthful transplant organs they are about to receive...
lol this is SO much better than the U.S. method of dealing with people.
ya.... china spends... 10 cents for every person that violates a major crime...
and.... U.S. spends over 100k on prisoners waiting to be executed and over millions of dollars on life time sentences...
very nice.... they get to rot in jail for the rest of their life and do nothing except suck up more money and resources from our tax dollars...
if we executed all of the life time sentence criminals... we would save billions of millions of dollars... that can be put to better use than feeding criminals....
Mandatory execution on the spot for bad guys should be put to action in your country. I'll support it.
If only we could trust the justice system in America to put actual criminals in jail. The police contaminate evidence too often, if not outright fabricate it. The prosecutors play very dirty in court, and public defenders are a joke. Only way you can prove your innocence is to prove you were out of town when it was committed. DNA evidence is absolving people in life sentences so often that it makes you wonder if we put anyone that "deserves it" in jail at all.
Barf! *dropped 6yuan* This kid's been playing too much River City Ransom.
Poor guy never even got his iPod...
the poor guy in china never even get his iPod the nearest they can get is hi-Pod
In,my,opinion,this,middleschooler,deserve,to,be,dealth,with,cruely.Only,the,hypocrites,would,give,any,sympathy.
well, there's rampant consumerism for you. "Socialism with Chinese characteristics." Indeed.
yup it's worse than the Virginia Tech massacre or the columbine high school one. /sarcasem
forgot the russia one silly me.
Those were charitable massacres.
Damn... I can't believe people's lives are that cheap now...
It's the recession.
was the Human life ever worth anything at all? humans lives are worless in ANY currency system around, becoue they cant have a value nor will they ever have a value
thats a situation value placed on them but a life 1 human life has no value. only when people need something or want something dose it have a situation value on it. but the 1 human life has no value to belive other wise is an error
Any contract killer would disagree with you Lost. Human lives are very expensive, since getting away with it is a risky business.
Ofc, Chinese lives are an exception since there are too much of them anyway.
This kid should have just killed few thousand. People only seem to notice/care when the news says 1000 or less.
ahem...

You can sell:
bones
lungs
kidneys
heart
sperm
eggs
and more
That's quite a lot, and it would all go for about $40-50 million if a random internet survey is to be trusted.
Let him together with Nevada-tan. Come to think of it, has Nevada-tan been freed yet?
CHINA QUALITY AGAIN?
This country is so fucked up... Disgusting..
Consider how big the population is. If every country have the same percentage of population that are bad fruits, then China will have more bad fruits than any other country.
+1
you'd do anything for a Hi-Phone
ANYTHING
china make crime again
dang, that's terrible...
Leave it to the Chinese.
Russian, Chinese and Japanese, never ,Never fail to amaze me
it's called phale.
The article implies that killer boi was too weak for targetting ppl of his own size, therefore he went for younger lolis.
The boy was clearly a psychopath. It is a good thing he is caught early before he is an adult and smart enough to not get caught, but it is a pity two people have already died.
Sometimes, people are born broken. This boy is one of these people.
People aren't born broken,there's no sometimes.
People break,because of the circumstances they were put in,and the experiences they went through.
and knowing china, they will deal with him like so many others before him. With a bullet to the back of his broken brain
I dont see anything wrong with that -_-
how about a nice, clean brainwash? ^^
i say that execution by gun is going soft on him, probably should torture him or somethin before relieving him so easily. they should do that to all prisoners with horrendous crimes
now we just need 5 bil more bullets
oh no he didnt, he didnt go there
Go ahead, no prob here...
He killed them for nothing... lol, I don't think one could get mp3 player for 6 yuan.
+ Was killing them necessary?
Can they shoot two? I'll gladly pay for the other one. One bullet per life taken.
Doesn't matter what Rockbottom thinks, that kid deserves an eye for an eye.
deep down inside all of us.. we want the kid dead for what he did. It sounds like human nature to me.
I never had any common sense to begin with, but I don't go around stabbing people <.<
an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind
thank god we invented braille(sp) to fix that, huh? I think he deserves what he got.
ahem i don't think that every brain works normaly as it supposed to.So something like that happened.Could be even some faulth of bad expirience in live and loosing the proper needed common sense.
I also lost some common sense with bad life expirience.
yeah, but braille doesn't help mental blindness, or ignorance. No one is born with the brain to do stuff like that. An eye for an eye is for the lazy man, and it wouldn't be as fulfilling as learning from the problem and rectifying to stop or lessen the chances of future incarnations that would otherwise be inevitable. I don't mean to be a downer, but history proves there will undoubtedly be more kids like this and more deaths like this in the future. In fact, the bar seems to get lower with each story like this I read here.
Man you guys are sick. While I feel terrible for the two kids that died executing another kid isn't going to solve anything. How do you guys know he was born this way? There have been a number of cases where the murderer himself/herself was savagely abused as a child. This is a failing of society at large. What the hell is wrong with you people.
There are also a number of cases where people who are savagely abused as you put it do not do something like shank children for an iPod.
It would be one thing if he killed to survive, but he did it for a music player. And again, children. He deserves whatever he gets, even if he is mentally insane, China at large doesn't have the capacity nor the competency to accommodate his crazy ass.
Your assuming that the murders all stemmed from his greed in wanting an mp3 player. Dig deeper and you'll probably find many other issues, be it abuse or some genetic disorder. Not to say that I sympathize but motive has little to do with his mental stability or capacity.
Sounds fine to me.....
That's alright with me.
Nope, thats the actual problem. To me, china doesn't educate it's citizen that every living being is very important. If the government can treat human like disposable ressource, then why not that child? So seems to me the thinking.
Anyway, I bet the organs of young children sell pretty good.
They're communists, therefore they don't BELIEVE that every living being is important. Of course, we do a pretty shitty job of it in the capitalist West, as well. The only difference is that here it's employers treating people like disposable resources instead of the government doing it directly.
agreed
Doesn't communism mean everything and everyone are "equal" thus people have share everything "equally"? You people got to read more books before posting something stupid like that (blaming "everything" on communism is a propaganda, there are things that are caused by communism, but this is not one of them. If something can happen in the West too, then it's obvious it got nothing to do with Communism or education system. I am sure you will find cases like these in the States too) Honestly, if you blame everything on Communism or a country's system, then you are just stupid (lack of logic, education, and sense)
That boy obvious had some shocking trouble recently (maybe such as being bullied, parents not doing their job right, extreme peer pressure), thus decided on killing them for the money. It can also mean his moral part of his brian (I forgot what's it called) is smaller than normal, thus having difficulty understanding morals.
It's obviously a case of mental disorder, nothing to do with teaching or morals. I am putting my money on the "some recent shocking trouble" event which caused this case.
I agree it's fine if he dies
Its not communism.
The kid's just fucked up.
The kid probably doesn't even know what communism is yet
Neither does that Anonymous posting that misguided rant about the myth that is what communism is supposed to be.
China's "communism" is not.
Dude, you are too soft
no problem here.
Same here. Sounds good.
I disagree, there is always someway to deal with these kids...
yes there is, its called a firing squad!
Let me shoot you please.
...........fuck shit.....what kind of motherfucker asshole kills elementary!? If he wanted the moola so bad he should have try someone older!
he's a schoolboy himself.. i find it difficult to see him killing older folks... but that was just stupid... darwin award?
Nope. Darwin award has you taking yourself out of the gene pool.
no, no... it has to be accidental death doing something stupid
government execution does not count
Well, he is in China, so probably will end with a bullet in the head. So, maybe can receive the award anyways.
no, he shouldn't kill anyone.
hee, they got these kind of things when I was in Indonesia as well,
like "a girl committed suicide because her mother won't give her allowance Rp 500,- (merely US$ 0.045 )"
"a man aged 2X killed the stall owner because the stall owner asked him to pay his debt over 2 glass of coffee(US 10 cents) he ordered few days back, and said the stall owner's getting on his nerves" (if the stall owner kill the man for his debt still a little better)
the world's is filled with sick people nowadays.
berita kapan itu XD?
(when did it happen XD?)
around 2005?
saw it on... I think it's called "buser" or "sergap" in the tv while I was having lunch!? (who the hell put these series of specialized programmes for crime news for lunch break o.O)
prolly stuffs like this happened quite often that it's not even big news for someone who live there, but it is big news for foreigners.
You mean:
"The world's always been filled with sick people."
Learn some history for examples...
chinese people are sicker by proportion.
i refuse to.. the world out here is scary
Have you left your comfy cave yet, hermit?
