A trumpeter touring China with the British rock group Wham! went berserk aboard an airliner, stabbed himself in the abdomen and ran into the cockpit before being subdued, sources close to the group said. The plane, on a flight to Canton, returned to Peking--where the Portuguese musician, Paul de Oliveira, 33, was placed under observation in a hospital, Portuguese Embassy officials said. Oliveira suffered superficial wounds. Wham! stars George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley were not aboard the plane, which carried the advance crew and backup musicians for a Canton concert.
