BEIJING (AFP) - The son of a Chinese official beat a man to death in a dispute over compensation after his dogs bit the victim, state media reported Monday, in a case sparking outrage online.
The 24-year-old victim, Xie Benzong, was walking in a park in the central city of Changsha on January 30 when he was bitten by two dogs belonging to Guo Bin, the son of a local official, the official Xinhua news agency reported.
