Man kills vendor after realising he bought a fake iPhone

A 29-year-old man, surnamed Feng, stabbed a street peddler to death in Zhengzhou City, Heinan Province on February 28, after he realized that he was sold a fake iPhone.

According to the street monitoring camera footage, the 29-year-old with a knife in hand chased after the vendor along the street at the Two-Seven Square, in Zhengzhou. The vendor fell onto the ground after he was stabbed in his thigh, but he struggled to pick himself up soon running again.

When they ran to the front of a shopping mall, the vendor fell one more time. In order to stop the knife-wielding offender coming close to him, the man kept kicking his legs. The offender waved the knife over him for a while and then left. But, unfortunately, the vendor failed to stand up this time. When the ambulance arrived, he has died from blood loss as the artery in his right leg has broken open.

After 2 hours hunting, the local police successfully arrested Feng, who is a chef in a kindergarten of the city, and seized the knife too on the day.

It was learned the criminal suspect bought an iPhone with “a good discount” at 2,000 yuan only from two street peddlers near the Rail Station of Zhengzhou City on February 25. When he thought he was hit by good luck that day and happily opened the phone to use, he realized he was fooled: the peddlers showed him a real iPhone in demonstration, but eventually gave him a fake one after the “good deal”.

Feng was furious, and rushed back to the original place where he was tricked. For fear the fact that these kinds of street vendors often came as a group, Feng prepared a knife to defend himself and threaten others.

But after several days of searching, Feng did not find the vendors who sold the fake iPhone to him, but ran into another group of vendors.

Physical conflict aroused between them after argument, and Feng was consequently group beaten by the gang. Under such a pressing circumstance, Feng took out the knife and desperately stabbed to them, forcing the gang to stay back.

One of them sustained the stab wound and Feng took the opportunity to fight back and chase after the injured, which finally led to the death of this vendor.
