[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] A man who stabbed a female sexual assault victim with a weapon for reporting him was arrested by the police.

The Gunsan Police Station in Jeonbuk announced on the 26th that they are investigating A (43) on suspicion of attempted murder.

A is accused of wielding a weapon against a woman in her 30s, B, at a house in Gunsan City around 12:40 a.m. that day.

After the crime, A called 119 and reported, "I think I killed someone."

The police responded jointly with the fire department and arrested A at the scene as a suspect caught in the act.

B, who was seriously injured, was taken to the hospital but is reported to be in stable condition.

It was investigated that A committed this crime after B reported him for charges including trespassing and sexual assault, which led to a trial.

He stated that "I thought I wouldn't have to go to trial if the victim disappeared."

The police plan to apply for an arrest warrant after completing the investigation of A and others involved.
