really great how security comes up after he was slashed a few times..

According to his management company, he suffered minor damage to his internal organs and four fingers on his right hand but is now in a stable condition.

After the surgery in Zhongshan, he returned on Saturday night to Hong Kong, where he was admitted to the intensive care unit at Adventist Hospital.

Yam's hand injury could worsen and he might undergo another surgery on Sunday (July 21), said representatives from his management company.

Hong Kong newspaper Sing Tao Daily reported that the representatives said it is unclear how long Yam will be hospitalised for.

Meanwhile, the Zhongshan police on Saturday evening identified the suspect as a 53-year-old local resident who they said had been diagnosed with schizophrenia.

A fruit knife was used in the attack, which left Yam with a 2cm-wide, 3cm-deep gash to his abdomen and an injured hand, the police said in a statement.

Scary. Glad he's ok. I guess celebrities are more at risk from mental cases than the rest of us.

Holy God. Out of fucken nowhere. I'm so glad he's okay.

Read about the term/concept of Psychosphere.

It will explain why we are living in a "clown world" which is a euphemism for a cynical and psychologically sick world.

But people get stabbed all the time since forever and for hardly any reason!
