The fight broke out between a male and a female nurse over ‘relationship issues’ at a local hospital on May 12 and the video has since been taken off Youtube…
South China Morning Post reports:
Leaked surveillance footage shows a man and woman – dressed in medical scrubs and surgical caps – coming to blows at Lankao Central Hospital in Henan province last Friday, according to the Legal Evening News.
The brawl appeared to be taking place while a patient was still lying on the operating table, surrounded by six doctors and nurses.
The confrontation seemed to escalate after the man removed his medical glove and threw it at the woman’s face. She then moved to hit him back, prompting him to charge forward and land at least seven successive blows to her head as nearby staff scrambled to stop the conflict. Police who were investigating the incident declined to reveal the reasons for the brawl. But the Lankao county propaganda department told local media that the two began fighting because of relationship-related issues, although the two were not a couple.
While police claimed the fight took place after the operation when the patient was no longer in the operating room, online users pointed out that video footage contradicted that statement incident: “[Fighting over] relationship problems, but they’re not a couple? I don’t understand, is this what society calls ‘friends with benefits’?”
