Man kills ex-wife, male companion in apparent debt dispute
A man ran over his ex-wife and a male companion in Taikang, Henan Province last Sunday, killing them both.
The two victims were hit by the car travelling at high speed at about 5pm while crossing a road. They both died at the scene.
Local police said on Tuesday that the car driver, surnamed Gao, was the ex-husband of the female victim, surnamed Fan.
The pair divorced last July, but a recent debt dispute apparently led to the incident, police added.
Gao has been detained for suspected murder.
Further investigation is ongoing.
