四川泸州市龙马潭区10月17号下午，突发万人群体事件，当地民众在网上发布消息说，事件起因是3名交警将一名驾驶运鱼车的司机，拖下车殴打致死，引起公愤，导致上万人抗议，而当局派出的大量警方人员与现场民众发生激烈冲突，警方施放催泪弹驱散人群，还有人被警方打得头破血流，数辆警车被掀翻烧毁，现场犹如硝烟弥漫的“战场”。
但是，泸州市政府新闻办10月18号发出的通报，却说司机是因病身亡。并声称事件已得到平稳处理，没有造成人员伤亡。
泸州市政府对事件的回应，再次引起泸州网民的愤怒，除了谴责政府的谎言，还不断上传事件现场的图片和录像，而官方也不断删除相关帖子。目前，大部分相关微博已被删除，更多的民众上网寻求真相。
