Three children were among six people killed when a man drove his car into a crowd of schoolchildren and their parents in Fuzhou, police said today.

In addition more than a dozen were injured when Lin Jianxin, who is first believed to have strapped a petrol can to his body, rammed into the group, in Zhuangtou village.

The 37-year-old attempted to flee the scene but was quickly apprehended by police and bundled into a squad car.

He told officers he had been suffering from marriage problems.

The Southeast Express newspaper quoted a source as saying the suspect had petrol in the car and had a lighter in his hand. He was detained by the local anti-bomb squad, the source said.

The victims included children who were on their way home from school. Several reportedly died after being rushed to the Minhou County No 2 Hospital.

An internet user named Aling claimed three members of a single family had been killed, with only one surviving.

The injured were sent to a hospital in Fuzhou, the capital of Fujian province.

The driver was reportedly upset that his wife wanted to divorce him, the Express cited the source as saying.
