Elderly man bleeds from his head, died in a house Investigated in a murder case

At dawn on the 14th, a 67-year-old man was found to have shed blood from his head in a house in Ome City, Tokyo, and died at the hospital where he was transported. The Metropolitan Police Department is investigating the murder case.

Around 1:50 am on the 14th, at a house in Narumi, Ome City, Tokyo, a man heard that a man ran away when he woke up because he heard a noise when he slept at home. There was a call report.

When a police officer rushed to the scene, an elderly man was found to shed blood from his head.

According to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, the man was Kazuo Ogawa (67) who lived in this house. He was taken to the hospital, but died at around 6:30 am, only four hours later.

When the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department examined the state of the corpse, Mr. Ogawa had fallen near the dining kitchen and had a scar that seemed to be beaten strongly.

It also means that the glass part of the front door is broken, and the criminal seems to have unlocked the hand from there.

Mr. Ogawa has lived alone since her mother died about 10 years ago.

The site is an area dotted with about 4 km of houses north of JR Ome Station, and there are junior high schools and shrines nearby.

The Metropolitan Police Department has set up an investigation headquarters in the light of a murder case, and is investigating whether suspicious persons have been witnessed nearby.
