East Coast Aztec Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Quote Police gave no details on the motive, but a witness told Japanese TV that the attacker angrily complained that something of his had been stolen, possibly by the company. Not an appropriate response, dickhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
