Summary: March 12th, Gan X took a taxi with his daughter to go see her mother. On the car, he suddenly began viciously beating her, and after smashing the window, he threw her out. After the taxi stopped and Gan got off the car and left, he was hit and ran over by a passing truck, and died immediately. At present, the child’s condition is stable, and her life is in no danger. The case is currently under further investigation.
According to family members, the girl was with her father that day going to see her mother, and the mother has yet to make an appearance after the incident
According to Mr. Chen, the taxi driver who carried the father-daughter pair, he picked up the man and his daughter at around 9pm that night at Pinghe Xiaoxi Town. “Because the father had no money with him at the time, he had me to take them to a relative’s house in Longhai Dongyuan town, so he could get money for the cab fare.” Chen said the child was quite well-behaved all along the way, without crying or making a fuss.
“Just as we were about to reach downtown Zhangzhou, the man suddenly started beating the child, then picked up an unopened bottle of red wine and smashed open the taxi’s rear-left window. Just as I was about to pull over and before the car had stopped, he picked up his daughter and tossed her out of the broken window,” Mr. Chen recalled. After the car had stopped, the child’s father crawled out of the car through the broken window, and went over to the child. “He picked the kid up and dropped/thew her onto the ground two times in a row, and then headed across the road.”
Mr. Chen hastily carried the child onto the side of the road and called the police. As for where the child’s father then went, he says he himself didn’t know.
When Jiuhu police arrived, the child was still conscious, and told the police her name and her father’s mobile phone number. However, when the police dialed the child’s father’s number, the mobile phone was off.
