TOKYO, Dec 15 — A junior high school student was stabbed to death and another wounded last night by an unknown assailant at a McDonald’s restaurant in southwestern Japan, local media reported.
The students were rushed to hospital after the stabbing at the McDonald’s in the city of Kitakyushu, in Fukuoka prefecture, the Jiji news agency said.
The female student died, while the other victim, a boy, was conscious, it added.
A male suspect fled the scene at around 8:30 pm (1130 GMT) and police were searching for him, according to Jiji.

Violent crime is rare in Japan, which has strict gun control laws. But there are occasional stabbings and even shootings, including the assassination of former prime minister Shinzo Abe in 2022.
In 2019, two people including a schoolgirl were stabbed to death and more than a dozen wounded in the Japanese city of Kawasaki in a rampage by an attacker who targeted children as they waited for a bus.
