Stabbing Spree in Akihabara
A man from Susono, Shizuoka Prefecture flipped out and rammed a rental truck in to pedestrians on a crowded intersection in Akihabara. He then jumped out an stabbed over a dozen people with a dagger he had bought two days before. The police had him surrender at gun point, but not before he killed 6 men and a woman. He is now in custody and will likely be sentenced to death by hanging as is the case with these types.
Misc:
This stabbing took place on the anniversary of another stabbing spree that occured 7 years earlier at an elementary school in Osaka.
The man's parents publicly apologized on national TV for the crime their son committed. They felt ashamed that they could not raise him better.
The Japanese government is now considering restricting the sale of certain types of knives.
Akihabara is the otaku capital of the world. Otaku are Japanese geeks who get off on hentai, anime based figurines, chicks in maid outfits and the sexualization of minors. Not surprisingly, 99% of the porno on this site can be found in Akihabara on store shelves. Hence the name Akiba-Online.
