「闇バイト」の不審者を想定した対処訓練 駅構内でナイフ所持 警視庁「連携深めたい」(2026年7月9日)

A training exercise was conducted simulating a scenario where a man recruited through an "illegal part-time job" scheme was causing a disturbance at a train station with a knife. The training, held in Sumida Ward, Tokyo, was based on the scenario of a train station user discovering a "illegal part-time job" applicant carrying a knife and reporting it to station staff. Approximately 70 people, including police officers and railway company employees, participated in the training, reviewing how to deal with suspicious individuals, including the use of a sasumata (a type of pole weapon) and practicing self-defense techniques. Given the increasing number of crimes committed by "anonymous, mobile criminal groups," or "tokuryu," the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department stated, "We want to deepen cooperation and utilize the insights and challenges gained from this training for future efforts."
