"Sa kabutihang palad po, wala namang naulat na Pilipino na na-injure (Fortunately, no Filipino was reported injured because of the attack)," Robespierre Bolivar, the Embassy's Deputy Chief of Mission, said in a radio interview. Reports said at least 17 persons were injured in the attack by a man dressed in a Batman's Joker costume at the Keio Line train in Tokyo, as people are gearing up for Halloween gatherings in the Japanese capital. Police arrested the suspect, a 24-year-old man who identified himself as Kyota Hattori, who also started a fire inside the train. Bolivar noted that the attack is still a developing story where authorities are checking the mental health condition of the suspect who purportedly said he "wanted to kill people and be given the death penalty".
