When the police arrived, Mr. A and Mr. C were sitting in the driver’s seat and passenger seat of the vehicle, respectively, and both were unconscious. They were transported to a hospital by the 119 emergency medical team and received treatment; currently, only Mr. A has regained consciousness.


The police visited Ms. B’s home, the registered owner of the vehicle, through a vehicle registration inquiry, but she was already found dead in her room. Bruises were found on Ms. B’s thigh, and there was no indication that she had attempted an extreme act.


The police judged that Mr. A and Mr. C were related to Ms. B’s death and, after conducting on-site investigations and analyzing CCTV footage, identified Mr. A as a suspect and urgently arrested him.



A police official stated, "Another murder suspect, Mr. C, will be taken into custody and investigated as soon as he regains consciousness," and added, "We plan to investigate the circumstances of the crime through an autopsy of the body and digital forensics."
