Chinese man arrested for allegedly killing boss' wife in wage dispute

SEOUL, Nov. 28 (Yonhap) -- A Chinese man was arrested Saturday for allegedly
wounding his South Korean employer and killing the boss' wife over a wage
dispute, the police said.

The 42-year-old suspect, identified only by his surname Chang, is also suspected
of wounding his boss' 22-year-old son.
The incident took place Thursday at a junkyard in Gwangju, south of Seoul, where
the suspect has worked for the past two months, according to the police.
Chang and his South Korean employer, 45, had a brief quarrel over four-days worth
of unpaid wages, totalling about 200,000 won (US$169), when the suspect pulled
out a knife and killed his boss' 45-year-old wife, they said.
The suspect was arrested at his girlfriend's house in Icheon, Gyeonggi Province.
