A man with a knife stabbed at least 10 passengers on a commuter train in Tokyo on Friday and was captured by police after fleeing, fire department officials and news reports said.

NHK public television said one passenger was seriously injured. It said the suspect left his knife behind as he fled and later gave himself up at a convenience store

A witness at a nearby station where the train stopped said passengers were rushing out of the carriages and shouting that there was a stabbing and asking for first aid. Another witness told NHK that he saw passengers smeared with blood come out of the train, as an announcer asked for doctors and for passengers carrying towels.

They need to make trains a “knife-free zone”.

The stabbing occurred near Seijogakuen station, according to railway operator Odakyu Electric Railway Co.

A nice area of Tokyo with an ivy league equivalent level prep school . . .

I usually think Sudden Jihad Syndrome in such situations but since Japan makes Islamic entry difficult it must be some other kind of insanity.

Here in the Philippines when an ordinary man cracks up and starts killing family or strangers,it is called amok.

That is assuming he isn't hopped up on shabu (meth).
