TOKYO (TR) – Thirty years have passed since the shooting deaths of three people, including a high school girl, at a supermarket in Hachioji City. With the case still unsolved, police are seeking the help of the public, reports Fuji News Network (July 30).

On July 30, 1995, an unknown assailant shot and killed three female employees of supermarket Nampei Owada in a second-floor office. Each of the three employees — Noriko Inagaki, 47, Megumi Yabuki, 17, and Hiromi Maeda, 16 — were found bound by tape and with gunshot wounds to the head.

Police calling for information from the public. To assist, they have released redesigned posters and a new video asking for information.

Yoshimasa Kujirai, Director of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department’s First Investigative Division, is in charge of the case. “We, the police, will never give up until we catch the culprit,” he said. “Your information is essential to apprehending the perpetrator, and I can say this now more than ever.”

A safe containing about 4 million yen showed signs that someone attempted to pry open its door. Since it was known that the employees were unaware of the combination to the safe, it has been speculated that the crime was the result of a failed robbery.
