An apartment in Funabashi City, Chiba Prefecture, where a man in his 30s who lives in this room is holding his mother and younger sister captive with something like a knife.

It is reported that they have been able to communicate with the man by phone, but at first, he told the police officers things like If you dont leave, Ill kill you. The police are treating this as a hostage situation.

Around 6:40 a.m. on the 20th, the police received a report from a family member that a man is barricaded in a room with a knife at an apartment in Natsumidai, Funabashi City.

According to the police, a man in his 30s who lives in this room was holding his 59-year-old mother and 27-year-old sister captive with something like a knife, and reportedly told the police officers who arrived, If you dont leave, Ill kill you, among other things.

Police are checking to see if there are any injured people.

The police have been able to continue communicating with the man by phone, so they are continuing their attempts to persuade him, treating the situation as a hostage standoff, while also taking measures such as regulating traffic in the surrounding area.

The site is located in an area with a mix of fields and houses, about one kilometer south of Magomezawa Station on the Tobu Noda Line.

The situation at the standoff site is that the scene in Funabashi City is located in an area about three kilometers north of the city center, where residential houses and farmland are mixed together.

The area is restricted by the police, and from the prefectural road about 100 meters away, you can see many police officers gathered in front of the building, standing guard.

In addition, in the vicinity, along with numerous police vehicles, ambulances and fire trucks are standing by, creating a tense atmosphere.

A woman who lives near the scene said, I didnt notice the incident because I didnt hear any sirens or anything like that.

Since its in the neighborhood, we take out the trash at the same place, but I dont know what kind of people live there.

I just learned that an incident has occurred, and not knowing whats going on makes me scared, they said.
