[Capture news] Poke a middle school student and run away in 30 seconds..."I can't go to school". Scared of Japan.

After finishing the weekend evening academy, two male and female middle school students were lining up for orders at McDonald's.

A middle-aged man came into the store and approached them, and without saying anything, stabbed a girl and a boy once each and ran away.

The girl died of excessive bleeding, and the boy was seriously injured.

It took less than 30 seconds to get away from the crime.

The suspect is known to have no knowledge of the victims, but his whereabouts are unknown.

This McDonald's is a place where many students usually visit because there are kindergartens, elementary and middle schools, and academies nearby.

[Neighborhood resident: Until quite late, there are several nearby academies, so there are many students who go back after the academy.]

The victims' middle schools were closed for a day, and the rest of the nearby schools were allowed to attend voluntarily, but more than 4,00 people did not go to school.

[Parents: I came to pick up my child myself because I was nervous. I'm still scared because the criminal hasn't been caught.]

[Transport volunteer] I never thought this would happen. We'll have to wait and see. You just have to keep them safe.

Investigators are nervous that the suspect is likely to commit another similar crime.

Accordingly, 90 special investigators were deployed.

The suspect is believed to be in his 40s, about 170 centimeters tall, wearing a gray top and black pants.

I'm Kim Se-ho from YTN in Tokyo.
