The man who beheaded a noodle shop owner in central China after a row over the price of his meal suffers from mental illness and has a history of violence.

The 22-year-old migrant worker, identified only by his family name Hu, was held by police for killing the restaurant owner in Wuhan in Hubei province on Saturday.

Hu cut off the shop owner’s head with a kitchen cleaver after accusing the man of overcharging him one yuan (15 US cents) for each of the three bowls of noodles he had ordered.

Hu spent the first half of last year in a psychiatric hospital in his home province of Sichuan and was released in June after doctors found his condition had improved.

A doctor’s report before Hu’s discharge stated that the patient was a neat dresser, poor communicator, bad at calculations, restless and easily irritated.

Hu was classified as suffering from a level-two form of mental impairment out of a four-tier system, with level one the most serious, the doctor’s report said.

Hu was a railway maintenance worker in different provinces before he moved to Wuhan for work, according to the newspaper.

“Every time he goes home, the whole family are uneasy. He even beats up his own parents,” Hu’s cousin, who worked with him for over two years, was quoted as saying.

The cousin told Hu once beat up his own father so badly that the man took months to recover from his injuries.

Hu often fought with him and others at his workplace, too, the cousin said.

Hu brought two kitchen knives to another cousin’s home over the Lunar New Year holiday after they had fought the previous year.

Relatives took the knives away after finding them, the cousin added.

After the argument at the noodle shop in Wuhan in Saturday, Hu threw the shop owner’s head into a rubbish bin nearby.

His doctors said he was bad at calculations...so the noodle probably didn't overcharge him.

The guy actually looks like he's smiling. Probably thinking 'Oh look, I'm literally beside myself!'
