Woman stabbed to death in western Japan, suspect on run

A 28-year-old woman was stabbed to death on Friday in the compound of her apartment in the western Japan city of Amagasaki with a suspect apparently fleeing on a motor scooter, police said. Sayaka Morimoto was found lying face-down with multiple stab wounds in her back near a bicycle parking area, an investigative source said, adding she and the suspect are believed to have known each other. A delivery man called an ambulance at around 8:20 p.m. saying that "a man possibly in his 20s or 30s is stabbing" the woman. Morimoto, a medical clerk, was taken to a hospital but pronounced dead later, the police said, adding that no weapons were found at the crime scene. According to the police, security camera footage showed a man dressed in black who was not wearing a helmet entering a passage toward the parking area shortly before the stabbing incident and later fleeing.
