 An eyewitness captured dramatic footage of the moment of explosion after a suspect threw what appeared to be a smoke bomb during Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida's outdoor speech event in Western Japan on April 15. Video obtained by Reuters showed security personnel pinning a man on the ground while trying to disperse a crowd surrounding them. Shortly after, the sound of a loud explosion could be heard as people screamed. Kishida took cover and was evacuated unhurt while police subdued the man at the scene, public broadcaster NHK said. The incident occurred at the Saikazaki fishing harbor in Wakayama Prefecture, some 65 km southwest of Osaka city. Former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, the longest-serving leader of modern Japan, was assassinated with a homemade gun last July while campaigning for a parliamentary election, shocking the nation and prompting a review of security for politicians who routinely pressed the flesh with the public.
