The 2011 Lufeng city riot occurred from 21–23 September 2011 in the Wukan village over allegations that corrupt officials of the Chinese Communist Party had sold land to real estate developers without properly compensating the farmer owners. According to different media reports, several hundred to several thousand people protested in front of and then attacked a Chinese Communist Party building, a police station and an industrial park. Protesters held signs saying "give us back our farmland" and "let us continue farming". Rumours that the police had killed a child further inflamed the protesters and provoked the riot. Residents of Wukan repeatedly petitioned the government in 2009 and 2010 about the land disputes.
