Worms on a Train?

Worms on a Train? photo

I love Japanese crime. The cases are always so minor... and strangely sexual. One of the most recent arrests for one of these "crimes" involves a strange pervert and a backpack full of 3,600 worms.

Manabu Mizuta is 35-years-old and probably has some kind of ladies scared of worms fetish. Maybe that's why he packed his backpack full of worms and headed for the nearest express train. On the Keihan line in Osaka prefecture, he would move close to women on the train and dump out a canister of beetle larvae. 

He said, "I wanted to see women get scared and shake their legs.''

Awesome.

Apparently Mizuta had a good run, as local police were on alert due to 18 similar reported cases in the same month. Sadly, it all came to an end as he was arrested by a patrolling police officer on duty. The officer stopped him on the spot in mid dump of a canister of nearly 200 worms. He never got the chance to release his full 3,600 worm payload.
