On the morning of the 4th, a man was found dead at Mt. Tanigawa in Minakami Town, Gunma Prefecture, and police investigated it.
The police have decided to continue searching for five days, as the whereabouts of a female police officer who was climbing with a man are unknown.
According to the police, I have been unable to contact the two men and women of the Metropolitan Police Department police officers who had been climbing Mt. Tanigawa in Minakami Town, Gunma Prefecture, since the day before yesterday.
For this reason, the police continued to search from the father, but before 9 am on the 4th, a man was found dead about 250 meters below the mountain trail, and the Metropolitan Police Department living in Itabashi Ward, Tokyo, could not be contacted. It was confirmed that he was a police officer, Kenji Konagai (43).
According to the police, a 52-year-old woman who was also a former colleague who was climbing the mountain and was also a police officer of the Metropolitan Police Department could not be found, and the police will continue to search tomorrow.

In addition, in Gunma Prefecture, on the morning of the 4th, an unemployed Mr. Gosuke Mijo (82), who lives in Yokohama, was found lying down on a mountain trail in Katashina Village, after which he was confirmed dead.
