South Korean student attacks classmates with hammer at Japanese university

India Today  

Japanese police arrested a student suspected of a hammer attack at a Tokyo University, which local media said left several injured. The 22-year-old South Korean sociology student was arrested on the spot for allegedly attacking a male student during class at Hosei University’s Tama campus in Tokyo’s western suburbs on Friday, causing him minor injuries, according to the Tokyo metropolitan police. Nearly 150 students were in class that day and one told Kyodo the attacker seemed to swing the hammer aimlessly, hitting those seated in the last row in the classroom, and that everyone ran away. In December, a junior high school student was stabbed to death and her friend injured while queuing up at a McDonald’s restaurant in the southwestern city of Kitakyushu in an alleged random attack, in which a man was later arrested.
