A 62-year-old man surnamed Fan drove a small SUV through the gate and "forced his way into the city's sports centre, ramming people who were exercising on the internal roads", police said Tuesday. Preliminary investigations suggested Fan's attack had been "triggered by (his) dissatisfaction with the division of property following his divorce", their statement said.

He was found in his car cutting himself with a knife, and is currently in a coma after self-inflicted injuries to his neck and other parts of his body, unable to undergo interrogation, they added.

The 43 people wounded are not currently in life-threatening condition, police said.

Some were attempting to take videos but were blocked by a police car and security guards shouting "No filming!"
