A woman and two chefs in China used an umbrella and kitchen tools to thwart a knife-wielding man during a street attack, earning widespread praise on mainland social media.
On September 11, a photographer assaulted his female client with a fruit knife following an argument over her dissatisfaction with his work.
The incident occurred on the street in Suzhou, a city in eastern China, according to the mainland media outlet, Xiaoxiang Morning Post.
A video circulating online captures a female tourist stepping forward to strike the attacker’s hand with an umbrella as he gripped and pulled the client’s hair.
Shortly after, a restaurant owner and his employee joined in, using ladles as weapons to corner the assailant and ultimately subdue him.
