Three people were killed in a stabbing allegedly because of a personal grudge in Dongguan, Guangdong province, on Monday afternoon.

The suspect surnamed Yin, a 38-year-old male, approached and verbally confronted a man surnamed Zeng, 32, over a personal grudge in the Shangjiao community of Chang'an township. He then stabbed Zeng, according to the Chang'an branch of the Dongguan Public Security Bureau.
