CHIBA, Dec 16 (News On Japan) –
A 50-year-old girl has been arrested for allegedly killing a male acquaintance by driving a car into the ocean at a port in Funabashi City, Chiba Prefecture.
At round 1:30 p.m. on October 14th, a small cargo car plunged into the ocean at a port in Hamacho, Funabashi City. The man within the passenger seat, Masayuki Mizushima, 80, was later pronounced lifeless.
On the morning of October fifteenth, police arrested Miyuki Harada, a 54-year-old unemployed resident of Funabashi City, on suspicion of homicide for driving the car.
According to the police, Harada had met Mizushima by work and had been confiding in him about her private troubles.
In questioning, Harada said, “While driving, my mind went into a panic, and I felt like I just wanted to die, which led to the car falling into the sea,” partially denying the costs towards her.
