Japan Indiscriminate Stabbings

A man drove his car into a woman aged 36 sending her flying. He then got out of his car and started to stab away at her back with a fruit knife before deciding to stab himself in the stomach.
Both of them are in critical condition and the man is unconscious.
The woman said that she did not know who the attacker was.

Reminds me of the Akiba killings where a man drove his car into a crowd and got out to stab them.
The TV news over here is not all grim though. Remember watching TV on a visit back to the UK noticing that nearly all news was about people being stabbed or shot. News in your region depressing too?
