KANAGAWA (TR) – Kanagawa Prefectural Police are seeking the whereabouts of a man after the discovery of the corpses of his elderly parents in their residence in Yokosuka City on Thursday, reports Fuji News Network (April 8).
At around 10:30 p.m., police received a telephone call. “I haven’t been able to get in touch with my relatives for 2 to 3 days. When I visited [their residence], I couldn’t get inside,” the caller said.
Officers arriving at the scene entered the residence by breaking a glass window and found the bodies of Mitsuo Onoboshi, 75, and his wife, 72-year-old Yasuko, inside separate futons in the first-floor living room.
Police confirmed the identities of the bodies the next day. The causes of death are under investigation.
The couple shared the residence with their eldest son, aged in his 40s. His whereabouts are currently not known. Police are now seeking to question him about the matter.
