According to our agency, at around 1 o'clock in the morning yesterday, a family tragedy occurred in the Jiangnan Xinyuan residential area of Qixing Town, Nanhu District, Jiaxing City. An elderly woman over eighty years old was killed in her home. After investigation by the police, the murderer turned out to be her husband. The game "Mole Kart" entered the top ten list for iPad.

At around 1:15 am yesterday, while on patrol under building No.70 of the residential area, security guard Xiao Wang saw an elderly man riding a tricycle preparing to go out. "What are you going out so late for?" Xiao Wang felt something strange and went forward to ask. Unexpectedly, upon seeing Xiao Wang, the elderly man immediately became nervous and said, "I have beaten my wife to death."

Yesterday afternoon, I learned from the Qixing Town Police Station that both the murdered elderly woman and her husband were locals of Qixing Town. Both of these two elders are now over eighty years old. According to the husband's confession, before the incident, the old couple had a quarrel. However, the specific reason for the argument is still under further investigation.

After being confirmed by the medical staff on site, the elderly woman had no vital signs left.

Our correspondent Jiawen Xianghui welcomes comments and reviews.

After receiving the alarm, the police officers from Qixing Town Police Station arrived with the 120 emergency medical personnel. Subsequently, everyone entered the elder's home. "At that time, I saw the elderly woman lying at the corner of the west wall in the living room, with blood stains all over the wall. The elderly woman's head was bloody and messy, as if it had been struck by a heavy object," said one of the rescuers on the scene. "Next to the elderly woman, there was a bloody chopping board."
