Train Passengers Robbed While Napping
The next time you doze off on the train, be aware that thefts do sometimes occur:
YOKOHAMA–A man referred to prosecutors Thursday told police he stole more than 100 bags from train racks over a three-year period.
Hiromi Ichige, 66, told police he stole bags from JR Keihin Tohoku Line trains while their owners slept. The unemployed resident of Sagamihara in the prefecture told police he would place his own bag next to the targeted item and make off with the latter if the owner drowsed.
