'They target elderly, don't they have parents?'

Witnesses and survivors of Thursday's attack in Urumqi spoke of their fear and anger toward the terrorists.

The attack in the capital of the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region happened at about 7:50 am at a packed fruit and vegetable market on Park North Street.

The market attracts a large crowd of customers each day. Some customers traveled there by bus and many elderly people were among those seeking bargains.
