Man arrested for forcing schoolgirl into bag
HIROSHIMA, Japan - Taxi driver Hisayuki Hoshiyama opens the trunk of his taxi, where a 12-year-old elementary schoolgirl in a large traveling bag was found, in the city of Hiroshima on Sept. 5, 2012. Tomohiro Kodama, a 20-year-old university sophomore in Tokyo, hailed Hoshiyama's taxi and put the bag in the trunk the previous day, but was arrested after the driver heard the girl's voice coming from the bag and asked a passerby to call the police while stopping at a red light. The girl, who had been forced into the bag after being threatened by Kodama with a knife, sustained no injuries.
