Police continue search for bus stop pervert

A rash of incidents at Japanese bus stops continued Thursday as a man, 20-30, lifted up a school girl's skirt as she waited to go to school. The man then fled on foot and remains at large. This is the eleventh such incident in the past month.

"This man, he has no honor" said Japanese student Asako Tanaka. "If I ever meet him I will curse his family name!"

A passerby was able to snap a quick photo on a cell phone moments before the incident. This photo is now being posted as a warning at bus stops to alert young women to the potential danger.

"What we ask is for young girls to sit inside the bus terminal, or even to wear pants, though this is not an option in many schools. Also, be aware of your surroundings and try to ride the bus with a friend" said Japanese Bus spokesman, Hideki.

"We would also like to announce that we will start selling a line of security products starting today. These can be worn under the skirt and deliver a mild electric shock to anyone who tries to reach underneath. We also have an economy brand that works like a mousetrap."

The incidents reportedly began in mid-december when a man lifted 3 skirts at a rural bus stop. Since then, the individual seems to be moving inward towards the busier parts of the city.

"He was probably just some poor lonely guy before the holidays, someone who thought it'd give him some purpose. But now he's getting more gutsy" said Police Chief Morimoto. "Each 'attack'

has occured in increasingly populated areas. But it's just a matter of time. I have over a dozen undercover officers waiting with a nasty surprise the next time he shows up."

What was the nasty surprise that Chief Morimoto spoke of?

"They're men."

Although the police do not yet have a name for their suspect, they have made a computer generated artists rendition of the perpetrator. If seen, please call 1-800-STOP-HIM. Suspect is considered 'armed', and perverted.
