0 
The township of Xintang in south China's Guangdong Province is back to normal on Sunday after an unrest disrupted the night of the bustling manufacturing town on Saturday.
The unrest was triggered after a pregnant woman named Wang Lianmei fell to the ground during a scuffle with village security personnel, who were asking her to move her stall in front of a supermarket, according to a government statement released at a Sunday conference.
Wang and her husband Tang Xucai are from southwest China's Sichuan Province, the statement said.
Township government officials and policemen managed to defuse the incident at first. However, several bystanders attempted to stop the woman's husband from helping her into an ambulance, after which a large number of people began to gather, the statement said.
Several people in the crowd hurled bottles and bricks at government officials and police vehicles. Police arrested 25 people who are believed to have incited the unrest.
No injuries or deaths were reported.
"A hospital check-up showed that my wife and the baby are both safe and sound," said Tang, the husband, at the conference.
On Sunday, traffic has been resumed and shops stay open near the 107 State Road where the unrest took place Saturday.
However, there are still some people gathering at a crossroad near the township's government office building. Though, one of the onlookers, who declined to be named, said that he had not heard of any "aggressive behavior" so far on Sunday.
Zengcheng City, which administers Xintang, has sent a work panel to dispel rumors concerning the incident, said Ye Niuping, the city major, at the conference.
Various rumors quickly began to spread in Xintang after the incident.
