Schoolboy jumps from building after his phone was confiscated

A student from China plunged off his school building last week after a teacher had taken away his mobile phone during class.
The teenage boy had apparently been playing games on his phone in class, according to Chinese media.
He was taken to the hospital immediately and suffered 'non-life-threatening' injuries.
The incident occurred on the morning of March 22 in Tanghe County, central China's Henan Province, reported China.com.
The student, identified as Liu, is reportedly a first grade student at a secondary school in Tanghe. His age has not been reported, but students in that grade are typically 15 years old.
According to a surveillance video clip shared on Chinese social media, Liu stood on the balcony of his school building during a break between classes. A number of other students were relaxing near him.
Two female students, who stood next to Liu, appeared to be shocked as Liu climbed over the railing and suddenly jumped.
It remains unclear how high the balcony is.
The Education and Sports Bureau of Tanghe County released a statement in the evening of March 24, according to China.com.
The statement confirmed the incident.
The statement also said that the police authority had carried out an investigation into the incident.
According to the police, Liu's teacher confiscated his mobile phone because he had been playing games on it during class. Liu was apparently unhappy about losing his phone and resorted to drastic measures.
The local authority has set up a team to carry out further investigation into the matters. The team comprises officials from the local propaganda, education, police and health departments.
Liu is currently in hospital and his condition is stable, said the statement.
