Bill dispute ends with stitches pulled

BEIJING - A restaurant employee injured at work in Central China allowed a doctor to remove stitches to his wounds shortly after receiving treatment, rather than pay the bill.

The case was first reported by the Wuhan-based Chutian Metropolis Daily, which is in Hubei province.

The man, surnamed Zeng, received deep wounds to two fingers on Friday evening from broken plates. His colleagues quickly took him to the nearby Wuhan No 3 Hospital for treatment.
