Murder fugitive caught after 7 years ( 2003-10-15 14:55) (China Daily)
A man suspected of murdering two elderly people has been arrested in his
hometown after five years on the run, Liaoshen Daily reports.
Seven years ago, 89-year-old Zhao Shouchen and his wife took pity on Li
Dianshuang, a young homeless man without a family, and let him stay with them.
However, they soon found that Li was fond of eating and averse to labour. The
old couple often advised him to find some work to no avail.
On September 7, 1998, after the exasperated couple asked Li to move out, he
killed them, set their house on fire and fled.
