Some 2,000 people mobbed a hospital in southwest China and clashed with police after a young boy died at the facility, temporarily shutting it down and leaving at least 10 people injured, a human rights organization and local residents said Sunday.

The boy was taken to the hospital by his grandfather on Tuesday after he accidentally swallowed some farming chemicals stored in an old soft drink bottle. Doctors told the grandfather that he didn’t have enough money for treatment and asked him to go home and fetch more. When he returned, the boy, who was between 3- and 4-years old, had died. It wasn’t immediately clear what effort was made to treat the child.
