Police Arrest Man For Killing Four In Japan Gun Attack

“Behind her came a man wearing camouflage and carrying a large knife, who stabbed her in the back,” the 72-year-old witness said. He said he called emergency services while neighbours tried to resuscitate the woman. The attacker announced: “I killed her because I wanted to,” according to an eyewitness cited by Kyodo news. Local media said he then fired what has been described as a hunting gun at police officers who arrived at the scene. The officers were inside a patrol car and the attacker placed the weapon against a window of the vehicle and fired twice, NHK reported. The slain officers were identified as Yoshiki Tamai, 46, and Takuo Ikeuchi, 61. Local media said the man then barricaded himself inside his father’s home, where he remained most of the night, with occasional gunshots heard. Two women, including the suspect’s mother, escaped the house, one at around 8:35 pm and the other soon after midnight. The suspect was finally detained. A woman was found at the scene with injuries and later pronounced dead. Japan was left reeling in July last year when former prime minister Shinzo Abe was shot dead in broad daylight with an apparently homemade gun. Abe’s accused assassin, Tetsuya Yamagami, reportedly targeted the politician over his links to the Unification Church. And last month, a man was arrested for allegedly hurling a pipe bomb-like explosive towards Prime Minister Fumio Kishida as he campaigned in the western city of Wakayama. Kishida was unharmed and a man arrested on the scene will undergo a three-month psychiatric examination, a regional court said this week. The suspect has reportedly remained tight-lipped about his motive for that failed attack.
