Police arrest man in Internet threat
From Times Wire Reports
Japanese police arrested a 19-year-old man who they said made a threat on the Internet to go on a stabbing spree at Tokyo Disneyland.
The June 15 message came a week after a man posted similar warnings before killing seven people in a downtown Tokyo rampage. Since the attack, police have arrested several people who allegedly made Internet threats.
Investigators have found no evidence that the suspect, a minor under Japanese law, was preparing to carry out an assault.
