Some light relief for the end of the week
Well it’s been a stressful week for some of you, especially those who might be SOFA status and under the lockdown. Rumours are going round this could continue for another 2 weeks at least, and other say it could be the 25th of March before everyone is allowed out. Nothing confirmed yet but that’s what’s being said by some.
So, to help turn a few of those frowns upside down, I bring you none other than the hilarious combination of drunk Japanese man and Japanese policeman! This story comes from Japan Today:
NAGOYA - Police on Friday arrested a man for stealing a poster of an actress from a “koban” (police box) in Nagoya. Kiyoshi Hata, 68, was arrested for allegedly stealing a tax campaign poster featuring actress Mikako Tabe at a police box around 11 p.m. on Thursday night.
Hata smashed the glass panels to remove the poster from the wall and then called police four times, using the phone in the koban. “Why isn’t there anyone here? Where are you?” he reportedly yelled. He was arrested near JR Nagoya station after he again called police from a public phone.
According to police, an officer was sleeping in back during the incident but said later that he heard nothing. Police say the suspect was drunk and denies the allegation.

If nothing else, you’ve got to give that guy credit for calling the police from their own phonebox after breaking in and stealing something… while an officer slept in the back! Have a good weekend ladies and gents. Will report any stories I hear over the next couple of days.
