A Chinese man who allegedly stabbed another Chinese man to death in Daerim-dong turned himself in to police on Thursday.

He surrendered to police in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi Province, after fleeing from the crime scene.

According to the police, the victim, 27, was the suspect's supervisor. The suspect told police he committed the crime in a fit of anger in an argument over late pay.

The suspect said he was owed 300,000 won ($28) and payment two days overdue.
