Police in Zhejiang province have caught a suspect in a high-profile murder and robbery who had been on the run for 22 years.
The 45-year-old suspect, identified by police as Xu, robbed a jewelry store in Ningbo in 1995, shooting two guards to death and stealing 11 kilograms of gold and platinum products.
In 2004, police offered 200,000 yuan ($28,900), and later raised the amount to 500,000 yuan, for information about the crime, plus another three robberies he was believed to have committed later.
