Blinded 6-year-old does not know his eyes were gouged out

A six-year-old Chinese boy who had his eyes gouged out does not know he has been blinded and asks his family why the sun has yet to rise, state media said.

The boy, Guo Bin, was found covered in blood in the northern province of Shanxi after he went missing while playing outside, Chinese media reported.

His eyes, gouged out by an attacker, were recovered nearby, said a police officer in Fenxi county.
