TIMIKA, Indonesia (AFP) - A mob angered by a road accident stabbed to death a soldier on Wednesday in Indonesia's restive province of Papua, a local military official said.
The road accident took place at 12.45am local time (11.45am Singapore time) when two soldiers were riding a motorcycle and hit a child on a street in Wamena town, provincial military spokesman Ali Hamdan Bogra said.
'Locals got angry by the accident and mobbed our members. They stabbed them on the chest with sharp weapons. One died in a nearby hospital and another is critically injured,' he told AFP.
He said that the security condition in the town had returned to normal.
