Ebery day thewre are habbenungs in Okinawa and mainland Japan.
Me thinks none are coincidental either…
A US soldier carrying a gun in Okinawa was arrested near a temporary escaping private residential area
A man of Air Force soldiers belonging to U.S. Army Kadena base temporarily escaped on 6th while possessing a handgun from inside the base and found that the US military was arrested around the private residential area of Yomitan village Uza during the same day. Firing was not confirmed. Meanwhile, the US military did not contact the Okinawa Defense Bureau until the Okinawa Times inquired on the 7th, and it was not transmitted to the surrounding municipalities. The Japan-U.S. Agreement stipulates that "promptly notify the local authorities concerning public safety or environmental influences," there is a possibility of conflict.

Beretta 92F bag
According to the 18th flight team, deserters belong to the 353 Special Operations Force. A deserter was not in the office and searched for it. As a result of searching, the security forces found and restrained within 3 hours. At that time, he said he had a handgun Beretta 92F in his car bag . The reason why a handgun was brought out is unknown.
Although deserters are out of office due to absenteeism, there is a possibility that it is outside official affairs, but the prefectural police have not publicized because the US side secured his former person. For the crime of soldiers and military personnel, the
Japan-US Nation Agreement states that the first jurisdiction will be on the US side if it is "official" and on the Japanese side if it is "off the public service." However, if the US side secures his / her first role even outside official duty, in principle, it will not be handed over to Japan until prosecution.
Rifle erection also
On the 7th, the Defense Agency offered information to Okinawa City, Kadena Town, Chatanicho Town of the three municipal town liaison councils on Kadena Air Base in addition to the prefecture and Yomitan village. We asked the US side to prevent recurrence.
A message from the US side to the prefectural police headquarters was around 6 pm on Sunday. Executives gathered at the floor of the criminal division on the third floor in an urgent situation, and were forced to collect information.
In 2014, a case of a US soldier in the US military camp Kuwae in Chatan-cho took a rifle in his house and a case occurred. U.S. sold bullets at Camp Hansen's Shooting Training Center and in the Camp Zuigakuri weapons store they got lie to the person in charge to practice the shooting tournament and obtain a rifle. After that, I moved to a camping Kuwaue where my house is located. After the incident, it is done with a light disposition of admonition and reduction of salary.
The area around Shimonobashi in Yomitan village of Okinawa Prefecture where the escaped Air Force soldiers detained while holding a gun was a part of tourist facilities and hotels. The residential area will also last for approximately 9 kilometers from the Kadena base to which the US soldier belongs. The expressions of tourists and residents in the vicinity of the site who were spending the usual day were mixed with anxiety and anger.
