TAIPEI, Nov. 26 (Xinhua) -- On the eve of Taiwan's mayoral and city councilor elections, Sean Lien, son of Lien Chan, honorary chairman of Kuomintang (KMT) party, was reportedly shot in the face when he was campaigning for a KMT candidate in Taipei County Friday evening.

He was being treated at a local hospital. Local media cited doctors as saying Sean Lien's brain was not injured and his injury would not endanger his life.

A spokeswoman of the hospital where Sean Lien was treated said he was sober-minded when he was sent to the hospital. Doctors only found wounds in the man's left cheek and right temple.

"Though the injury is not life threatening, he needs further observation," said the spokeswoman.

According to local police, the shooting occurred at around 8:20 p.m., and a 29-year-old local resident died on the spot after being hit by a stray bullet.

A suspect, who was found carrying a pistol and bullets, has been detained.

Ting Yuan-chao, director of Lien Chan's office, hoped such violence would not happen again and the society would be peaceful.

Mayoral and city councilor elections are scheduled to be held Saturday in Taiwan's five major cities including Taipei City, Taichung, Tainan, Kaohsiung and Taipei County.
