A bus carrying students from a Japanese school in the city of Suzhou in China’s Jiangsu province were attacked by a man believed to be Chinese on Monday. A Japanese mother and her child who were at a bus stop at the time were injured.
Officials at the Japanese consulate general in Shanghai said the man was armed with what appeared to be a knife.
The victims were treated at a hospital. Officials say their injuries were not life-threatening.
The man has already been taken into custody by authorities.
