Eight students were stabbed by their schoolmate Saturday on campus in south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, with three of them in critical condition.

The eight stabbed female students are from Guangxi Teachers' College based in Nanning, capital of the autonomous region. Three of them, Wang Xuelan, Wang Fen and Huang Ting, are still in critical condition, according to a teacher of the college dealing with the incident. The college authorities declined to tell the suspect's name.

The suspected stabber poked the eight schoolmates in a dormitory building at noon time Saturday with a fruit knife. The victims were rushed to a hospital opposite to the college, said the teacher.

Wang Xuelan, Wang Fen and Huang Ting have since remained unconscious. Doctor Xie Changji said that they were not in a stable condition. "Wang Xuelan and Wang Fen are suffering from pneumothorax, which endangers their lives," said the doctor.

The police investigated the building and collected evidence. The suspect has been held in custody.

The suspect had a one-year suspension of schooling because she had tried to commit suicide by cutting her wrist, said a student who asked not to be named.
