(Mount Vernon, IA) — Four American educators from a small Iowa university were stabbed in a public park. The park was in northeast China’s Jilin province, where they visited a partner university in China when the attack occurred. Government officials are working to ensure the victims receive proper care and can return to the United States. The U.S. State Department is monitoring the situation.
Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds released a statement on social media calling the attacks horrifying, and she asked Iowans to pray for their recovery and safe return.
