NewsBall.com Day 6 of being held "captive": An American executive held in his Beijing medical supply plant by angry workers said Wednesday that he's waiting for his lawyers to arrive to resolve a compensation dispute that highlights tensions in China's labor market.
Chip Starnes was enduring a sixth day of captivity at the factory in the capital's northeastern suburbs that makes products for Coral Springs, Florida-based Specialty Medical Supplies.
About 100 workers are demanding generous severance packages identical to those offered 30 workers being laid-off from the company's plastics division. The demands followed rumors the entire plant was being closed, despite Starnes' assertion the company doesn't plan to fire the others.
CBS News' Doane was allowed into the factory Tuesday morning, where Starnes, 42, told him, he felt he was being held in "a cage like an animal."
