Hospital: Injured traffic police with blood stains
Five hours had passed since the incident, and the swelling on Peng Yan's face from the beating had not subsided at all. His bloodshot and swollen eyes could only be squinted into a slit. Although the bloodstains on his face had been wiped clean, the spotty bloodstains on his police uniform were still clearly visible. When recalling the scene at the time, the two traffic police officers remembered it vividly.
Incident: Traffic police encounter violent resistance to law enforcement
On-duty traffic police Ouyang Senyan said that at 6:30 PM, he and Peng Yan were on duty at the northeast entrance of Dongtang. A small minivan with the license plate number湘A7J367 illegally turned left from Niujiaotang and drove into the parking lot north of the elevated bridge. Peng Yan immediately stopped it and found out that the driver did not have his driver's license, so he took him to the traffic police booth and informed him that the vehicle would be temporarily impounded.
After dealing with the relevant matters, Peng Yan prepared to drive home. When he sat in the car, he discovered that the driver had called two other people who blocked his car and argued with Peng Yan, preventing him from impounding the vehicle. Ouyang Senyan wanted to go over and explain to them, but after just a few words, they started hitting him. Peng Yan got out of the car to mediate, and the man in the yellow T-shirt suddenly attacked him from behind when he was not paying attention. After being pushed away by Peng Yan, this man suddenly ran over and opened the door of Peng Yan's car, pulled out a steering wheel lock, and struck Peng Yan's head violently, causing him to bleed profusely.
Witness: The perpetrator shouted "Traffic police beat people"
Eyewitness Li Jing'an described the entire event she witnessed while shopping in Dongtang. At the time, a traffic police officer brought a minivan driver to the traffic police booth. About ten minutes later, they came out of the booth. "The traffic police sat in their own car, and that man stood behind it, preventing the traffic police from reversing. As soon as the traffic police started the car, the man maliciously shouted, 'You ran over my foot,' even though the car hadn't moved at all."
At this moment, another small car pulled up beside the road, and two men got out. These three people blocked the front of the traffic police car and demanded that the traffic police get out. Another traffic police officer came over to mediate, and these three people punched him several times. The traffic police in the car quickly got out to stop them, and two of the men mercilessly beat this traffic police officer with punches and kicks. After finishing the beating, they shouted, "Traffic police beat people!"
Among this group was a man in a yellow shirt who found a steering wheel lock in the traffic police car. "Such a thick iron bar, he smashed it down on the traffic police's head." It wasn't until the traffic police's head was broken and bleeding that they hurriedly fled north to Dongtang. "They hadn't run more than seven or eight meters before the two traffic police chased after them."
