He had a face that stopped traffic – or in this case, a marathon. A good-looking policeman was surrounded by marathon runners at the Chongqing marathon, as they crowded round to take his picture.

The runners, most of them female, apparently abandoned their original goal of running the race, swarming over to take close-ups of the handsome young man.

Fans said the policeman looked very much like Hong Kong actor Wallace Chung, whose latest TV role has caused a stir across the country since the start of the year. Wallace's lead character in the TV series was dubbed the most perfect boyfriend and husband ever.

As the situation got out of control, other policemen were deployed to escort the handsome man out of the crowd.

The marathon resumed, and for those still waiting for the man's return, the advice is to keep running – he is already married.
