Six wounded in knife attack at southern China rail station

BEIJING (Reuters) - A single knife-wielding assailant wounded six people on Tuesday in an attack at a railway station in China's southern city of Guangzhou, police and state media said, the latest of a series of assaults to raise jitters around the country.

Police gave no reason for the attack, but China has grown increasingly nervous about Islamic militancy since a car burst into flames on the edge of Beijing's Tiananmen Square in October and 29 people were stabbed to death in March in the southwestern city of Kunming.
