On Monday, six people were left dead and seven others wounded after an impoverished South Korean man went on a stabbing rampage in Seoul.

The suspect, who has been out of work since April, admitted to police that he did not want to live because of the pity he experiences as a result of his condition on a daily basis. The 31 year old suspect set fire to his low-cost housing in Seoul and then stabbed several other residents with a sashimi knife while attempting to flee the building.

Seven people were seriously wounded by the blaze, one man died after jumping from a window to escape the fire. Five people were also stabbed to death as the suspect, identified by his last name, Jeong, fled the building. Among the seven wounded, four are in critical condition and many suspect that the death toll may rise.
