19 people were killed and 26 injured during a mass stabbing spree in Japan. This killing makes it one of Japan’s deadliest mass killings since World War II. This is terrible. Aging from 18 to 70, 9 men and 10 woman were killed during the attack.
Police responded to a call of an employee who worked at the factory in which the attack happened. Satoshi Uematsu broke into the window around 2am. Around 3, he turned himself in. About 25 other people were injured during the crime. The former employee went door to door stabbing sleeping disabled people. A few months back he said he would ‘obliterate 470 disabled people.’ This is so sad.
We will keep all those lives in our prayers.
