Shengyou
Shengyou (simplified Chinese: 绳油; traditional Chinese: 繩油; pinyin: Shéngyóu) is a village in Kaiyuan (开元镇) south of the Dingzhou City in Hebei Province, China.[1][2] On the night of April 20, 2005 and later in the early morning of June 11, 2015, occurred incidents in which over two hundred allegedly hired thugs descended on a village in northern China and clashed with local residents over a land dispute. Seven people were killed and 48 others injured and hospitalized, eight of whom in critical condition.[3] The chaos was captured on video by one of the farmers and later released by Washington Post.
