Attacked in Zhujiajiao water villiage 10/2006

My boyfriend and I were strolling the streets of the water villiage. We were with 23 other westerners as part of a tour group. Our tour group were the only non-natives in the villiage. We were told it was a safe area and to browse around. We were quickly separated from all other foreigners. Two large men jumped out of a building labled as a pharmacy. It was not like the other structures in that it was completely enclosed, and we couldn't see what was inside. One of the men grabbed my boyfriend by both shoulders and the other stood in front of me. A third man yelling in chinese came up from behind. The villagers then surrounded us and began forcing us into the "pharmacy" building. I started yelling at my boyfriend to force his way through the crowd. I have ten years of self defense training but I was unsure what I could legally do to protect myself. We were able to force our way through the crowd (fortunately the people aren't that big or strong) and we ran back to the entrance and found our tour guide. We told her about the situation. She went to the scence herself but was unable to find the two men we described. Tourists should not be taken to Zhujiajiao. We saw no police, and wouldn't trust to complain to them anyway.
