At least 10 hurt in ‘rampage’ in South Korea near to Seoul

An attack by a guy outside Seoul, South Korea‘s capital, left at least 10 people hurt.

Just before 18:00 local time (09:00 GMT) on Thursday, the event took place close to a metro station in the commuter town of Seongnam.

Some victims reportedly suffered stab wounds, while others were reportedly struck by the assailant’s vehicle.

Later, the suspect was taken into custody there. Uncertainty surrounds the attack’s motive.

The attack was referred to as a “rampage” by local media.

Almost two weeks have passed since a previously unheard-of stabbing in Seoul. Three people were hurt, and one person died.
