Young boys rob and kill teacher in south China

Three boys aged 11 to 13 attacked and killed a teacher and robbed her of a cellphone and a few hundred euros-worth in cash in China.

The state-owned Beijing News said the boys were hanging out around an elementary school in the township of Lianqiao in the province of Hunan on Sunday when they decided to rob the only teacher guarding the school.

The boys, who are students at other schools, beat the 52-year-old teacher with a wooden stick, stuffed her mouth with cloth, and dragged her into a bathroom, where she died, the Beijing News said.
