TOKYO (AP) — Police say they have captured the suspect who holed up in a house in central Japan after allegedly killing four people, including two police officers. TBS television early Friday showed a man with his hands on his head walking out of the house in Nakano and being ushered into a police vehicle. A witness earlier told NHK public television that a woman fell while being chased by the suspect, who then stabbed her with a knife and shot at two police officers as they arrived at the scene. The three were declared dead at a hospital. NHK reported that a fourth person who was injured but could not be rescued because she was near the suspect was later found dead.
