Police in Uji, Kyoto Prefecture, have arrested a 20-year-old man on suspicion of abusing the two-year-old daughter of his girlfriend by flinging her to the floor of their apartment.
According to police, the incident occurred at around 7:20 a.m. on Sunday, Kyodo News reported. Police said Shuta Matsumura, a hospitality industry worker, is accused of throwing the child onto the floor, causing a contusion to her forehead. He also put her on a sofa and hit her.
The child’s mother, who is in her 20s, called 110. Police said Matsumura, who was drunk when they arrived, has denied the charge and quoted him as saying he has no recollection of the incident. The mother said Matsumura got irritated after her daughter began crying.
The child’ injuries were not life-threatening, police said.

Fighto!
Another child-abusing scum that needs to be severely dealt with. Hoping karma catches up and ends him.

Another worthless piece of gutter trash.
Lock him up, 30 years hard labor with no parole.

Drunk at 7:20am? There is the problem.

Too young to be a husband, let alone be a father.

"Police said Matsumura, who was drunk when they arrived, has denied the charge and quoted him as saying he has no recollection of the incident."
So, the usual "I have no recollection" excuse, but he denies the charge? Piece of garbage.

Piece of work, someone needs to throw him to the floor and have no recollection of it.

Appears to be an idiot!

Why? He is a man by his age alone. And he should be punished as one as well!

Kudos to the mother for calling the cops instead of just siding with the abusive boyfriend over her own child, which, unfortunately, happens far too often.

Drunk or sober Matsumura or any man of any age cannot go unpunished for this ghastly act of cruelty to a toddler of two years.
And his punishment has to be fitting to his crime.

I hope that someday the husband or the boyfriend of the little 2 years old girl will someday meet this creep in a dark alley near were he works and give him a lesson.

Man! What a loser. And who gets drunk at that time of morning?

Drunk at 7 in the morning. What a stellar father figure he's turning out to be. I hope they lock him away and the mother keeps him out of her and the baby's life for good.

What a pathetic puke!
A long period in prison will dry this slimepot out. Then he can ruminate clearly on the awful crime he committed. What a CHUMP! 20 years old, going on 2.

Matsumura should be convicted and sentenced to chemical castration and, prevented from adopting children and, of course, sent to prison for a loooooooog time.

Damn coward, punish him!!..

People who work the night shift. Hell I used to START drinking at 7 AM or so!
Alcohol is no excuse, he is a pathetic little man who was probably abusive
before drinking! One does not "suddenly" jump up and do this, especially
to a child.

Keep this monster away from any children for the rest of his life.

This inhumane idiot should be flung from a 20-story building a few times.
There is no room for such idiots in this world.

I used to work the 'graveyard' shift and I hate it. It's a drag while everybody else is sleeping or partying.
Maybe she didn't know at first what a jerk he is. At least she has the motherly instinct and sense to call the police on this loser. Give her credit for that.
