In January this year, investigators said that three 19-year-old suspects arrested by the Metropolitan Police Department in another robbery injury case were involved in an incident in which wristwatches and other items were stolen from a pawn shop in Ichikawa, Chiba. I understood from the interview.
The Chiba Prefectural Police Headquarters plans to arrest three people on suspicion of robbery early next week.
In January this year, a group of three men broke into a pawn shop in Ichikawa City, smashed the showcase, robbed them of 4.6 million yen worth of luxury wristwatches, and fled. We are investigating.
According to investigative sources, in subsequent investigations, three 19-year-old suspects arrested by the Metropolitan Police Department in four cases, including a robbery injury case that occurred in Kita Ward, Tokyo in January this year, were also involved in the Ichikawa case. It turns out that he was suspected to be involved.
The Chiba Prefectural Police Headquarters plans to transfer the three to the beginning of the week and arrest them on suspicion of robbery.
According to the investigation so far, the three people applied for a so-called dark part-time job on SNS, and it is suspected that they were involved in the robbery and injury incidents that occurred in Saitama and Ibaraki.
In addition, in Chiba Prefecture, in December last year, there were a series of incidents in which ATMs were tampered with in Kimitsu City, etc., and we are investigating whether these incidents are related.
