Xinhuanet Sydney, August 25th (Reporter Ma Bangjie and Cao Jianjie) Yesterday, a shocking scene happened during the Olympic torch relay. When Daley, a man who volunteered to take part in the relay, jogged along with the torch in McLean town, a teenager suddenly jumped out of the crowd on the roadside and sprayed the torch with a small fire extinguisher in his hand, which seemed to be full of profound hatred for the Olympic flame. Today, after many interviews and inquiries, the reporter finally learned the ins and outs of the incident.

When the teenager secretly hid the fire extinguisher under his coat and ran near the Dai Li, he suddenly jumped out of the crowd and held the fire extinguisher high in front of the Olympic flame. Thanks to Daley's quick response, he waved the torch behind him in time to save it.

This boy who dares to take the world by storm is a high school student aged 17. He was arrested by the police immediately after the incident. The fire extinguisher didn't put out the flame, but it made Candice, a female student running with Daley, miserable. Her lungs inhaled a lot of dust and powder from the fire extinguisher and she was sent to the hospital immediately. Her father told the media last night: "At that time, she was a little top-heavy, lost her sense of direction and felt a headache. Now she is safe and sound. "

Yesterday, Maclean lit lanterns and decorated them to welcome the Olympic flame, but it almost became the "burial place" of the flame. Because of this bizarre incident, local residents said yesterday was the most important day in their town's history.

Why did this middle school student come to create the most sensational historical event in this unpopular McLean? A friend of his told reporters that he bought a fire extinguisher because he was full of complaints about the Olympics and he wanted to make a political statement. He told us that he would make a political statement that the Olympic Games is now a money game and has nothing to do with sports. He is ready to bear the consequences of this incident. "

Although the middle school student's academic performance is among the best in his class, he lacks understanding of the basic ways of the world, has few real friends and rarely exchanges ideas with others, which makes him different.

Even if he douses the torch, it will not hinder the continuation of the torch relay. The organizing committee of Sydney Olympic Games has prepared two spare kindling. Once the torch is extinguished due to an accident, it can be ignited with a spare fire to continue the relay.

The police said last night that they had released the eccentric teenager and put his father in charge of discipline. But things didn't end there. They were still considering whether to sue the student. (

Even in France, people want to rob.
