A 27-year-old man in China was arrested today on suspicion of killing five persons including four teenagers in the country's central Hunan Province.

The suspect, identified only by his surname Nie, allegedly killed the son, daughter, nephew and niece of a local villager Kuang Runhua in Hengshan County yesterday.

All four victims were teenagers with the youngest being just 13 years old, state-run Xinhua news agency reported.
