 26-year-old mass murderer Tomohiro Katō drives a five-ton rented Isuzu Elf truck into a crowd at the crossing of Kanda Myōjin-dōri and Chūō-dōri streets killing three people, then climbs out of the truck and stabbs at least twelve people with a dagger in Akihabara, Tokyo, Kantō, Japan. A few days after the attack police arrested several people who stated their intention to commit copycat killings elsewhere in Japan. More info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akihabara_massacre |
