CHINA After catching his wife with her lover, the man lost control of his anger and attacked them both with a knife. The woman sustained multiple severe stab wounds and died at the scene, while her lover managed to escape. Once the attacker came to his senses and realized what he had done and the consequences he would face, he decided to take his own life. He stabbed himself in the neck several times with the same knife and bled to death before paramedics arrived.
