Chinese Border Guards Shoot North Korean Trying to Cross the Border

This could just be China cracking down on North Korean soldiers coming across the border and murdering Chinese citizens:

Chinese border guards shot and killed one person who was allegedly trying to illegally cross from North Korea on Thursday, authorities said.

The incident took place shortly before 4:00 p.m. (0800 GMT) after the suspect attempted to evade arrest by border guards, according to a brief statement from the Helong city government in Jilin province. It said the shooting is under investigation.
