A man in a wheelchair set off a homemade bomb at the Beijing International Airport on Saturday, injuring himself, Chinese state media reported.
China's official Xinhua News Agency reported that a Chinese man set off the device outside the arrivals exit of Terminal 3 around 6:24 p.m. local time Saturday.
"The explosion sound was loud," said a witness who gave only his family name, Chen, according to the Associated Press. He said he was only 27 yards away from the explosion when it occurred.
Chen said there was only one explosion, and that the terminal was crowded with people. "Since there was no second explosion, many people took out their phones and gathered near the explosion spot to take photos," he said.
