カラス駆除:南伊勢町議、車内で死亡 近くに散弾銃 三重
3日午後2時45分ごろ、三重県南伊勢町古和浦の同町議、上村康広さん(64)が、自分が経営する牧場の駐車場の乗用車内で、胸から血を流しているのを妻が発見し、119番した。搬送先の病院で死亡が確認された。
伊勢署によると、上村さんは胸に銃弾を受けて運転席で倒れており、散弾銃(全長約113センチ、上下2連式)が車外に落ちていた。上村さんは同日午前10時半ごろ、牧場のカラスを駆除するため、銃を持って1人で出かけたという。同署は暴発事故と自殺の両面から捜査している。
上村さんは90年、旧南島町議に初当選し、南伊勢町合併後を含め計6期務めていた。中部電力が計画した芦浜原発に反対し、93年の住民投票条例の制定に尽力した。福島第1原発事故を受け、最近も各地で反原発の講演などを行っていた。【谷口拓未】

About this site

This website updates the latest news about the Fukushima nuclear plant and also archives the past news from 2011. Because it's always updated and added live, articles, categories and the tags are not necessarily fitted in the latest format.
I am the writer of this website. About page remains in 2014. This is because my memory about 311 was clearer than now, 2023, and I think it can have a historical value. Now I'm living in Romania with 3 cats as an independent data scientist.
Actually, nothing has progressed in the plant since 2011. We still don't even know what is going on inside. They must keep cooling the crippled reactors by water, but additionally groundwater keeps flowing into the reactor buildings from the broken parts. This is why highly contaminated water is always produced more than it can circulate. Tepco is planning to officially discharge this water to the Pacific but Tritium is still remaining in it. They dilute this with seawater so that it is legally safe, but scientifically the same amount of radioactive tritium is contained. They say it is safe to discharge, but none of them have drunk it.
