Deadly Shooting at Japanese Live-Fire Training Session Leads to Arrest of Soldier.
An 18-year-old military recruit in Japan opened fire on his colleagues during a live-fire training session, killing two and injuring one. The suspect has been taken into custody and has admitted to the shooting. The motive is still being investigated. Live-fire drills nationwide have been suspended as a precautionary measure. Confessions from suspects in Japan are not uncommon, but gun violence is rare due to strict control and limited access to firearms.
