Disneyland actor attacked

- Chen Huizhi

A WOMAN who allegedly attacked an actor during a show at Shanghai’s Disneyland on Saturday has mental health issues, police said yesterday.

The incident happened at 5pm on Saturday.

The woman, 35, surnamed Guan, allegedly went onto the stage during the show and beat an actor with her hands, interrupti­ng the performanc­e.

Guan was summoned by police, but was unable to communicat­e with them. Her family reported they believed she had a mental illness.

Later at the Shanghai Mental Health Center, she was diagnosed with an acute mental disturbanc­e.

Guan traveled to Shanghai on her own, and claims on the internet that she had visited Disneyland with her daughter were a misunderst­anding, according to the police.

The actor did not suffer any injuries in the incident.

THE Supreme People’s Procurator­ate on Saturday announced its decision to arrest Li Jinzao, former vice minister of culture and tourism, for suspected bribe-taking. The National Supervisor­y Commission has completed an investigat­ion and handed the case over to prosecutor­s. Li has been expelled from the Communist Party of China and dismissed from public office.
