North Korean border guard 'shoots three Chinese dead'

Page last updated at 10:33 GMT, Tuesday, 8 June 2010 11:33 UK

The four were allegedly shot close to the countries' border China says a North Korean border guard shot and killed three people near the countries' border last week.

A fourth person was reportedly injured in the incident near the north-eastern border town of Dandong.

China has made a formal complaint to North Korea, a spokesman for the Chinese foreign ministry said.

The two countries are considered to be close allies and Beijing rarely makes any public criticism of its isolated neighbour.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang told a regular news conference in Beijing that the four residents of Dandong, in Liaoning province, had been shot "on suspicion of crossing the border for trade activities".

"China attaches great importance to that and has immediately raised a solemn representation with the DPRK," he said, using North Korea's full name (Democratic People's Republic of Korea).

North Korea is probably going to end up hanging themselves with this kind of insane violence. However, I fear it will be at the expense of many civilian lives in who knows what country.

If Ft. Hood was "workplace violence," then the Hindenburg was an air show.

Guns do not kill people. Rotting, festering, disgusting, grimy, evil, un-reparable souls kill people.

I think that you're right, and it will be South Korea bearing the brunt--with the Pacific Northwest of the US possibly getting some fallout from this.
