This is the moment a cancer patient is filmed smashing a car’s windows and doors with a spade after it boxed her vehicle in for three days and caused her to miss a crucial appointment with a specialist.
The woman living in Taiyuan’s Xiaodian District, in North China’s Shanxi Province, said she eventually paid for a taxi to the hospital, only to find the specialist she needed to see had left.
Footage filmed by one of her neighbours showed her taking a metal spade to the white saloon parked in the middle of the car park.
The woman, who has not been named, smashes in the car’s windows and bangs on all the doors using the gardening tool as she walks around the vehicle.
The video ends with local police having been called and arriving on site to speak with her.
While an investigation is ongoing, no arrests had been reported by Taiyuan police.
The woman, who reportedly owns the silver car seen in the video, told local media: “His car was parked right in the middle. None of the surrounding cars could move.
“Everyone needed their cars, but the car owner was unreachable. His car was just left there.
“On day one, we couldn’t reach him. On day two, we couldn’t reach him.
“On the third day, I took a taxi to the hospital, but the specialist was no longer there.
“I had made arrangements with the specialist, who came from Beijing for two days.
“How could I not be angry? It’s a matter of life and death!”
It is unclear what kind of cancer the woman suffers from. It is also unclear if the woman will be held liable for the damage to the vehicle and the police investigation is still ongoing. It is also unknown whether the woman has managed to make an appointment and see her specialist, or another one, at the time of writing.
