SHANGHAI, June 23 (Xinhua) -- Police arrested late Saturday a man who murdered six people, including four colleagues, a driver and a barracks guard in east China's Shanghai Municipality, the Shanghai government said on its microblog account

The 62-year-old murderer, surnamed Fan, pounded his colleague surnamed Zhang with tools and killed him at around 5 p.m. Saturday at a chemical factory in Baoshan District over an economic dispute, according to the microblog at the Twitter-like Sina Weibo service.
