TOKYO (AP) - A deadly lunchtime assault in a popular Tokyo
district has left seven people dead and 10 wounded.
News reports say a man rammed a truck into a crowd of shoppers,
then jumped out and began stabbing and slashing through a popular
electronics district.
Police confirmed seven deaths -- six men and one woman -- but
they could not say whether the victims died from injuries from the
truck or were stabbed to death.
The neighborhood is wildly popular among the country's
cyber-wise youth. A series of grisly knifings have stoked fears of
rising crime in Japan.
A 25-year-old man was apprehended in the attack.
A police spokesman says the suspect told police that he was
tired of life and went to the area to kill people.
Reports said the attacker grunted and roared as he slashed and
stabbed at Sunday shoppers.
