TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — A man allegedly viciously slashed a female high school student over 20 times after she told him that she wished to break up.
On Saturday evening (Sept. 7), a 22-year old man surnamed Tseng (曾) was informed by his girlfriend, a first-year high school student, surnamed Yang (楊) that she wanted to break up because he had only achieved a high-school education, reported UDN. Upon hearing her decision, Tseng reportedly ambushed her as she walked out of a shop and began to slash the woman wildly with a fruit knife.
Witnesses said that Tseng appeared to have "lost his mind" as he brutally attacked Yang on Wenzhong Road, according to UDN. Tseng then allegedly dragged Yang to the entrance of the store and slashed the defenseless petite student over 20 times, reported SET News.
During the assault, Yang tried to shield herself with her hand, and he sliced off her middle, ring, and little fingers, according to SET News. He even sliced off a piece of her scalp, according to the report.
