Another suspected child abuse and domestic violence case occurred in Taipei City! Yesterday at around 5 pm, by the swimming pool of the Xinsheng Park Sports Center in Zhongshan District, a father surnamed Zhang lost control of his emotions because his son, who was about 7 years old, was crying. He kicked his own flesh and blood on the head and body, causing the boy's cheeks to swell and bleed. What was outrageous was that the on-site staff actually said it was normal discipline and discouraged the police. Fortunately, the enthusiastic swimmers insisted on calling 110. After the police arrived, they took both parties back and handed the boy to his grandmother to take care of him, and notified the child protection.

Witnesses posted a post on the Threads social platform to restore the process, pointing out that they witnessed the boy being kicked down by his father and then kicked wildly for about 30 seconds, stomping hard on the head and body. The child curled up in pain and couldn't cry. Fortunately, there were enthusiastic people at the scene who stopped him, and the poster immediately called the police.

What made the witnesses angry was that a male staff member in gray clothes at the scene told nearby people that he was disciplining their children and asked everyone not to call the police. The author believes that the venue has seriously neglected its duties and this sentence may affect the opportunity to rescue children. Currently, he has called the 1999 hotline to lodge a complaint and requires the venue to retain the monitor screen and publicly explain the relevant disposal and improvement measures.

In response to the domestic violence case, the Yuanshan Police Station of the Zhongshan Branch stated that it received a report from the public at about 5 pm on the 20th and immediately sent officers to the second floor of the swimming pool to investigate. According to preliminary police investigation, the father surnamed Zhang claimed that the child kept crying and slapped his back, which caused him to lose control and kicked the boy's body, causing the boy to lose his balance and fall, and suffered abrasions and contusions on his face.

After 119 ambulance personnel arrived at the scene to inspect, it was confirmed that the boy was not in immediate life danger. To ensure the safety of the child, the police immediately took the father and son back to the police station to clarify the case, and notified the boy's grandmother to come to the scene to take the child back for care. The police have completed the child protection report in accordance with their authority and transferred it to the competent authorities for follow-up and follow-up. At the same time, the public is urged to call 110 or 113 to report the matter immediately if they discover suspected improper treatment.
