A Shandong man surnamed Wu ran into a Shanghai restaurant with a knife on Friday evening and began brutally stabbing a German man to death who was having dinner with Wu’s wife.

Wu suspected his wife was cheating on him with the victim. Overcome with anger, he burst into the restaurant and stabbed the victim for at least five minutes until he stopped breathing.

Wu reportedly didn’t leave the restaurant immediately after the stabbing. The entire crowd was terrified and rushed into the elevator. Patrons were forced to leave the building and the restaurant has since been closed down.

The case is still under police investigation.
