Law enforcement officials said that they have taken into custody Hana Hidaka, 33, on suspicion of attempted murder of her father, Yoshihiro Hidaka, 61. The incident allegedly occurred around 3:00 a.m. local time when the suspect assaulted the victim with a kitchen implement.
According to police records, Ms. Hidaka had contacted authorities twice within a 24-hour period. The initial call was placed around 5:30 p.m. on Sunday, followed by a second at the time of the alleged attack, during which she claimed her father had physically abused her.
When approached for comment, a spokesperson for the Iwata-based motorcycle and vehicle manufacturer declined, saying it is, "a private matter that is under investigation."
The case remains under investigation by local authorities.
