Police detain man holding gun to head
It took police in Xi'an, capital of Shaanxi province, five hours to persuade a man holding a gun to his head to give up the idea of suicide last week.
The 26-year-old second-hand phone dealer carried a gun and his knife to his girlfriend's house after she broke up with him.
