Suspect arrested in teen stabbings at McDonald's in Kitakyushu

KUDOS to the Police department and all the agencies involved , now let justice take its course and I pray that the judge residing over this case finds enough reasons / evidence to Hang this thug and remove him from society.

I hope they got the right guy. If so, good job.

Great work!

collected and analyzed nearby security camera footage to track down the man they believe is involved. The attacker fled after the incident.

Anyone who got access all security recording in that area can find where the suspect really went, nothing special about it.

Now the local families can have some peace.

Not anyone, you need special permit to have acecss to that kind of data, since video cameras and what they filmend are propety of the person or business where the cameras where installed.

Access to public cameras are also not easy accesible, they are public property but that data is not publicly available so easily.

In either case you need special authorization, usually form the judiciary system to have access. Yes, anyone can request access for that data, but you will need to show a series of documentation and present a plausible reason why you need access to that information. And you have to get permission for every and each camera and video feed.... So it is not a easy task to do. Usually it will take several weeks to month to get that type of autorization.

Additionally you will need to have certain experience and patience and personel to revise and analize each video feed, identify the suspect and follow the trace....

not anyone can do it... if you do, you should work as a private invesitagor, is a very rare set of skills

Of course this guy will be getting a psych eval. Hope he's found competent to stand trial and be sentenced if he's found guilty.

Poster said "Anyone who got access"

@ian

original poster phrase implies, that "anyone" can get access to it, and that the act of analizing the video data is "easy", which neither the access nor the analizing are

Haha

This is quite shocking. My house is very near to this Mc D's. I am in Yahata Nishi Ku. Wakamatsu area.

The crime in our area is just highschoolers messing about being loud and obnoxious. At said Mc D's 7-11, Orio & Jinnoharu station, Kurosaki area and station. The kids are down right rowdy, mostley just the boys do at times.

The Jr High school boys more than high school boys who seem more focused on a future.

Looking to be cool and attention seeking.

Other than moving violations on Rt3. San go sen.

We do not even see Yakuzuza anymore there. Its yuppie ville.

Shocking a local person has been murdered. I have said in past posts that those KitaKyu Jcops do not mess around. They will get to the bottom of it. Doubt will see many hanging out now.

Now the local families can have some peace.

As much peace as if a rock had fallen on them. He was basically a random disaster. RIP 1 school kid and another one scarred for life. That sucks.

Although Japan should not install surveillance cameras as much as China and Korea, Japan had better increase the number of surveillance cameras a little.

As much peace as if a rock had fallen on them

Reports were clear that families were understandably worried their children could be involved in further crimes because of the apparently random nature of the attack, now that the criminal has been caught this very specific situation is no longer reason to worry.

A good thing the police have caught this alleged killer. Some relief for those in the area - especially parents.

Rest in Peace to the poor, innocent schoolgirl with her whole life ahead of her. I hope her friend can recover fully from the attack.

Without a weapon and the police's admittedly sketchy video footage it'll be hard to prove it was this guy without a confession... and, well... confessions here... I DO hope they have the guy, of course.

Seems like inductive not deductive reasoning by the detectives, meaning who fits the profile, lives nearby, single, male, unemployed, etc. vs. hard evidence that supports actual case work.

Naturally, can still arrive at the correct conclusion, a proper arrest, but definitely a far riskier approach.

Seems who ever committed this crime had a clear plan, solid IQ and thus will likely not roll over so easily under police interrogations. He's prepped for that as well.

Just saying, but if we're honest, police seem a bit desperate to put public at ease etc. Besides, would a 'local' likely drive their car to the scene of the crime?

Seems unlikely at best = if this murder did drive away, pretty likely he's not a local.

Above - the Sherlock Holmes method!

That just how Japan works, fact just doesn't matter as long it fits Japanese "logic".

Death penalty is too good for this guy. Waste of space.

No, it does not seem like that at all, public place with lots of witness, not exactly dressed to facilitate escape afterwards, one single person that reacted could have gotten him at the moment of the crime (just not in time to prevent it), that seems like lousy preparation and low capacity to do a premeditated crime, it is not surprising that the criminal could be caught.

There are no pics, no physical evidence, no witnesses, got in out very fast, no murder weapon, no license plate, no DNA, NO NOTHING. Murder yes, but that's no dummy

This is good news!

Now the local families can have some peace.

This worries me a bit. I wouldn't put it past authorities to find a scapegoat and make an announcement to give local families peace even if there weren't ample evidence of a suspect. Hope they got the right person and that time will bear this out, or, if not, they realize it and continue to look under the rocks until they find the perp.

KUDOS to the Police department and all the agencies involved , now let justice take its course and I pray that the judge residing over this case finds enough reasons / evidence to Hang this thug and remove him from society.

Again, I hope they got the right person. I am surprised at all the jumping to conclusions that the person arrested is the guilty party.

I hope they got the right guy. If so, good job.

I agree. If so, good job.

Yup.

Exactly, healthy skepticism and critical thinking is appropriate with the read of the simple article and knowing mistakes that have been made by investigators in the past who are pressured to make arrests.

Of course not, these things are not REPORTED, which is not the same as not being available, specially witnesses that are plenty, and wearing sandals to a crime when anybody could be brave (and dumb) to try to stop him is definitely proof he is not the sharpest tool in the tool box.

The problem is blindly assuming mistakes from the investigators are the most likely explanation, even with the very few details being reported it is clear the crime was poorly planned and could have failed in many different ways, it is not a stretch to think this can lead to the capture of the criminal, it is not exactly a professional. This mistaken assumption resides completely on expecting the police to know as little as you, which makes no sense.
