Alcohol causes frequent urination

An you know for a fact that was why the guy was taking a long time?

Sometimes I wonder about the comments.

If the guy was just urinating it wouldn't have been long.

But I have waited as long as 20 minutes as some guy in the toilet flushed 3 or 4 times and after entering the toilet it was not urine smell.

I have had to ask the convenience store staff on multiple occasions to knock and check because the person was in for so long.

Unfortunately often they are smoking

This guy beats up a person who takes a while in the convenience store toilet, then robs him of 110,000 yen(wallet) and stays there drinking alcohol., and subsequently gets arrested. This guy is gonna go far in this world...

And to top it off, his last name is Baba... You can't make this stuff up. lolz!

Fighto: Mate stop triggering yourself and don't take this as having a go at your opinion. But there are many many holes in this article. Bloke goes to use the toilet but notice as he enters the door of there convenient store that the bloke who was just reading a girlly rag has duck into the toilet. Baba is busting and heads back to his car and waits but Baba could not hold on any more because this bloke has been in the toilet for 10 minutes and spoils his dacks. Then see the toilet hold out come out into the car park so he attack him because for this bloke taking too long cause baba to spoil his pants. Now would you want that story getting out about you spoiling your pants or just take the blame for hitting him and the stolen money was to replace the ruin pants. Years in gaol ? no, a fine and a bond yes.

Sounds like “caca” to me!

and it won't stop you from going in the bushes or using the ladies toilet if need be.

When you need a Tom Tit, ain’t nuthin’ gunna git in your way.

The toilet sounds like a false flag.

Whenever there is that type of situation, some immediately take action and move on to find another toilet . . . .

An you know for a fact that was why the guy was taking a long time?

Well the guy who got arrested for beating up the other customer for taking too long to use the toilet certainly was. It's right in the article:

A passerby called 119. When police arrived at the scene, Baba was still there, drinking alcohol, they said.

Wonder why the cops showed up after someone called 119? That's the number for the ambulance not the cops! Cops are 110!

 It's right in the article:

Happens far too often here, people dont read articles, just headlines, and then make comments.

He has a point. Nobody uses public toilets for a big job unless they really have to. I've sometimes been wondering what the hell people are doing in there...

A few kicks on the door and some angry words in English usually does the trick.

It is really annoying how long some people take in the bathroom, especially when the business has only one bathroom. No consideration for people who are waiting.

Not saying the guy deserved to get beat up, but the silver lining is he probably won’t stay in the bathroom too long anymore.

Hagato Baba nearly wet his pants while waiting for the man to come out the toilet who went in before him. Baba did not intend to rob the man when he punched him in the face. But, as the man fell, his wallet also fell. And he simply naturally picked it up. And, when he passed by the liquor store he felt thirsty. So, when he took out the wallet he was surprised to find that it contained 110,000 Yen. Hagato entered the store and bought himself a drink. And another. And another. Until the police arrived and found him drunk. At the trial he told the judge he was not guilty of robbery because of all the above mentioned reasons which began when his victim took such a long time in the toilet that he almost wet hinself. The judge sentenced Baba to two weeks community work and, the return the wallet containing 110,00 Yen with an apology to his victim.

Baba will need some counseling in jail.

Once I was walking in the Hinode country side when I decided to use the toilet in a convenience store. I waited more than enough for somebody that could have been taking a dump. I knocked to make sure the person new it was not a private space.

Finally a young teenager girls around 14/15 years old came out.

she was probably chatting or texting, or showing intimate pictures and needed the privacy.

So who knows what the victim was doing. Just be considerate. The toilet avenger is watching.

What a terribly queer affair! Reads like something from a 70’s sitcom.

Love all the speculation here by people commenting on the toilet habits of everyone in Japan. Nobody does this, or they were probably doing that.....

If the dude was in that much of a hurry, he could have used the female bathroom.

Stephen Chin: I assume he did soil him pants. But what proud Young Japanese is going to admit. Nearly ?

Firstly, violence is NEVER the answer - if the perpetrator is convicted of assaulting the victim, he must see prison-time, no question.

The rules are the same the world over, you are not allowed to touch another person inappropriately, or worse still, actually hit them - keep your hands and fists to yourself at all times. This way, everyone stays safe.

' Baba ' by name baba by nature........a certain level of Japanese language may be needed to understand that comment LOL !

This one time I had to go reeeeally bad so I used the "women only" toilet at 7/11. On my way out, a young garbage truck driver was waiting in line and he yelled at me because I used the women's toilet. I guess he would have preferred I crapped my pants. At lunch time on weekends they act like they own the place.

Though I don't agree with the violent reaction, I do sympathize with his thoughts.

I have had many situations where my kid had to use the restroom. There were only two or three stalls and all were occupied. The individuals inside were taking waaaaaaay too long. No doubt they were using their smartphones.

After you finished your business, get out.

As an adult I can wait. But kids can hold it for only so long.

In some countries, when first aid is called, the police are notified at the same time
