Around 7:30 p.m. the night before last, Xiaxia (a pseudonym) a 13-year-old girl was pricked by needle at Jingkelong Wangjing Store. Afterward, Xiaxia was examined at Wangjing Hospital where it was confirmed that she had a needle wound but no abnormal physical conditions were found. Presently, Chaoyang police are investigating.
Xiaxia's mother Ms. Ding said that around 7 p.m. the night before last, she brought Xiaxia to the first floor of Jingkelong Wangjing Store for shopping. Ms. Ding recalled that there were many people in the supermarket aisle and neither her nor her child noticed if any suspicious individuals approached them. Xiaxia suddenly tugged on her mother's clothes and said, "Mommy, it hurts like I've been pricked by a needle." Ms. Ding did not pay much attention to it at first as she thought that there was just some sharp object in her child's pants making her feel uncomfortable. A few minutes later, the child still frowned and complained about pain.
