The incident happened in the city of Xi’an, China.\u00a0 Ge’s car was blocked by the female cleaner’s rubbish truck.\u00a0 In a fit of rage, Ge and his companion alighted the vehicle and assaulted<\/a> the cleaner until she bled profusely.<\/p>\n

According to the netizen, Ge’s female companion was shoving the worker while screaming at her:\u00a0“How much money do I make?<\/p>\n

“How much money do you make?<\/p>\n

“Do you know you’re now keeping me from making money?”\u00a0 Ge himself then stepped forth and started beating up the cleaner.<\/p>\n
