NANJING, May 31 (Xinhua) -- A man who allegedly poured acid on a boy and disfigured him surrendered to police in east China's Jiangsu Province early Friday morning.
A man surnamed Cai turned himself in at a police station in the provincial capital of Nanjing. He was accompanied by his brother.
He admitted pouring acid an 11-year-old fourth-grader while the boy was on his way to school Thursday morning.
The child's face was seriously burned and he has been hospitalized. He is being treated in the intensive care unit of the Nanjing Children's Hospital.

A further investigation is under way.
