Man paid for injury sustained 30 years ago
A Beijing court ordered a village committee to pay a resident who was injured by a horse some 30 years ago 98,900 yuan ($14,473) as compensation last week.
Zhang, 50, a resident of Sanxingzhuang village in the capital, was working in his fields on Sept 30, 1979, when a horse attacked him.
