Shopaholic threatens suicide
A female member of staff threatened to commit suicide after failing to get money from her employer to participate in the "Double Eleven" online shopping festival in Wenzhou, East China's Zhejiang province, jinbaonet.com reported.
The 35-year-old threatened to jump from the roof of an 8-story electronics factory where she works. Police rescued her after a near 40-minute negotiation.
The woman told police she was addicted to shopping and usually spent half her monthly 4,000 yuan ($653) income on it. As she had less than 100 yuan left she had asked her employer to pay her salary in advance but was refused.
