Hong Kong (CNN) -- A 13-year-old boy is in intensive care in Beijing after two adults assaulted him by releasing compressed air into his body using a mechanical pump at an automobile repair shop.

Chinese media reported that the boy, Du Chuanwang, who lives in Shandong Province on China's east coast, suffered from dozens of puncture wounds in his intestines and multiple organ failure.

The boy helped out at the auto repair shop, where two co-workers allegedly inserted the nozzle of an air pump into his anus and filled his body with air. The suspects have been detained.

Local police posted a message last week on Sina Weibo, China's microblogging site, saying that the two men pushed the boy to the ground during the attack, and that the incident was a "prank."

Ai Qingze, the head of the Shandong hospital where Du received initial treatment, told the China Daily newspaper that upon seeing his inflated belly, the surgeons there cut his abdomen open to expel the gas and saw that his small intestines were bleeding. Ai said the boy's liver, kidneys and stomach were also damaged.

Du was in a coma for eight days following the assault. He woke up three days ago and was transferred to the intensive care unit at Bayi Children's Hospital in Beijing on Thursday.

"We can only provide the necessary life support to him for now, as his condition is very complicated, and the doctors have not yet devised a final treatment plan," a hospital official told CNN.

Hospital officials declined to give more details about Du's current condition.

Angel Mom, a charity group that helped arrange the hospital transfer, posted on Weibo that Du has a serious nose infection that is causing necrosis. A photo in the post shows massive decay of the boy's nose and cheek.

The post also said that after 20 hours of treatment, the boy's digestive tract has stopped bleeding, and his acid and electrolyte levels have returned to normal.

Du's father, uncle and grandfather went along to Beijing. The boy's mother died six years ago.

The family said they earn around 5,000 yuan ($780) per year from a small plot of land.

"We sent him to the repair shop because our family is close with the owner," said the grandfather. "Since his mother passed away, his dad hoped the owner of the repair shop could take care of him. We think of the owner as the boy's guardian."

The repair shop owner did not pay him money but bought him clothes and other items, according to the grandfather. He said the teenager does not actually work there but helps with simple tasks.

China Daily reported that his treatment at the first hospital, in Shandong, cost about 100,000 yuan, and that the repair shop owner paid for 60% of it.

Angel Mom said it has received over 400,000 yuan in donations for the boy but has since suspended the donation drive, as the money seems to be enough for his treatment for now -- it would start accepting donations again if more funds are needed.

The family said Du's father had received 101,500 yuan of the donations so far.

[Clydefrog]

Wow. Great prank, fuckers. good god

 

[commedieu]

Horrible. :\

Wont that give you a stroke? Air bubbles in the blood..?

 

[Jokergrin]

why would they do that..

 

[TheExodu5]

Absolutely terrible.

Assholes

Absolutely terrible that I laughed at this.

 

[Mordeccai]

What in the FUCK.

These douchebags put the nozzle in the kids ass and filled it with compressed air?

God damn I hope these guys get theirs. You can't fucking force air like that into the alimentary canal. I'm usually not a proponent of eye for an eye justice, but these guys need a whole tank of compressed air blasted up their rectums until their stomach explodes from the pressure. Poor kid was there just trying to help out, he's 13 years old, christ when I was 13 I was sitting in my parents house playing video games and not giving a fuck.

 

[Gabotron ES]

why?

 

[SUPREME1]

Horrible. :\

Wont that give you a stroke? Air bubbles in the blood..?

It could if a large enough air bubble made it into the bloodstream.


Sodomized him with a high pressure air compressor hose... damn.

 

[siddx]

Just reading this on CNN a while ago. Good on the shop owner for kicking in some money, and good on the family for shutting off the donations once they had enough to cover medical expenses.

 

[phosphor112]

I already knew where this was going before I clicked this thread.

Fuck people.

 

[Dresden]

I'd imagine that those two men are going to get a bullet each in their heads soon.

 

[Auto_aim1]

Wont that give you a stroke? Air bubbles in the blood..?

If injected in the veins or arterial line, then yeah.

 

[CaptainRizla]

Blown out of all proportion.

 

[SimleuqiR]

That's just insane. Poor kid.

That said all this made me think of was about Big Trouble in Little China.

I'm not trying to be funny. :-/

 

[Omni]

Wow

 

[maquiladora]

Blown out of all proportion.

c'mon son

 

[Gaborn]

why would they do that..

The scary thing is I had a similar thread 4 years ago about a father doing it to his son in Cambodia

 

[Danneee]

Horrible. :\

Wont that give you a stroke? Air bubbles in the blood..?

The bloodvessels would probably burst causing the person to bleed to death before a stroke occurs. And as someone mentioned, the air had to be pushed into the bloodstream.

Just what are you googling to find these stories?

 

[chubigans]

And you said my image wasn't justified!

 

[Uncompromisable]

anyone else think of this?

 

[Darkmakaimura]

Bastards.

Would not shed a tear if they put those involved to death. They deserve it.

 

[Liquidsnake]

What he said. Alimentary and stuff!!!


Gaborn is the bringer of smiles.

 

[Jarmel]

What sick fuck would do that to another person? How do you define and rationalize that as a prank? Why?

And you said my image wasn't justified!

The fact that Gaborn is the TC for all those is kinda hilarious. Then you have Anti-Gaborn for contrast purposes.

 

[Jarmel]

Double post.

 

[The Lamonster]

this is horrifying...and some of you jokesters are jerks

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

What a load of ballooney

 

[ToddGoku]

Can't wait for nature to wipe us out, we pretty much deserve it.

 

[Mordeccai]

Give me ten minutes with these assholes. Eviscerate the gut, and in the few minutes they have left shove the air nozzle up their ass and make them watch as I inflate their intestines out of their belly and fold them into a god damn giraffe balloon animal.

 

[dark10x]

That really pisses me off. Stupid fuckers deserve some pretty serious physical punishment.

 

[flippedb]

Exact same thing happened here a couple months ago. The kid (I believe 10 yrs old) died, co-workers were a cousin and a friend, I believe they're both in jail now.

Sick people all around the globe.
