A suspect who allegedly killed six people has been caught in northeast China's Heilongjiang province, after being on the run for 25 years, local police said on Sunday.
The man known only as Guo, admitted to having hacked a family of six to death with an axe in Raohe county in March 1991, following dispute over trivial matters.
Acting on information received earlier this month, police went to northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, apprehending Guo and his wife Wang last Sunday.
The case is still under investigation.
