The elderly was trying to defend her stall as much as she can and there were no onlookers willing to help her out.

Shidong town government issued a statement on Weibo, a Twitter-like social media site, that the vendor attacked the officers with a small knife when she was told to leave the street.

According to the urban police, the elderly woman was often seen selling vegetables on the street without proper license.

However, regarding the action taken by the urban police, Shidong town government suspended Liang, one of the on-duty officer, for violent act towards citizens.
