A man was detained Monday in Ito, Shizuoka Prefecture, on suspicion of abducting a Saitama girl who was found the previous day after disappearing two years ago, police said.
Kabu Terauchi, 23, was detained near Futo Station at around 3 a.m. after police responded to an emergency call from a newspaper delivery man. He was found standing in the road with a box cutter and covered in blood.
The girl, now 15, was placed in protective custody on Sunday after telling police she had been his captive since March 2014, when a stranger forced her into a car in Saitama Prefecture.
