A security guard called police and the suspect was arrested at the scene.  It was also discovered that the man was carrying a knife with a 10-centimeter (4-inch) blade.  TBS said the suspect told police that he got angry after he was ignored in June when he kneeled down before Kitano’s car, seeking help to let him join the entertainment industry.
