Suspect arrested for stealing from rooftop room of 14-story Tokyo apartment | NHK

A 33-year-old suspect was arrested for stealing a watch by sneaking into the top floor of a 14-story apartment in Minato-ku, Tokyo. According to the Metropolitan Police Department, it appears that he has repeatedly stolen from the roof to the veranda through the gutters, etc., and is silent about the investigation.

Yasuhiro Arashiro (33), unemployed and without a fixed address, was arrested.

According to the Metropolitan Police Department, in July of this year, he is suspected of sneaking into a room on the top floor of a 14-story apartment in Minato-ku and stealing a wristwatch.

After climbing to the roof using the external stairs, he is believed to have descended to the veranda through the eaves and entered the room through an open window.

Stay silent on the police investigation.

The Metropolitan Police Department also investigated in detail that the same trick has been repeatedly used to steal apartments in the Sumida neighborhood and the Koto neighborhood and requires thorough security measures such as locking even in rooms on the upper floors.
