Police hunt final fugitive in Tokyo gas attack

None

Thousands of police were mobilized Friday to hunt for the last fugitive suspected in a doomsday cult's deadly nerve gas attack on Tokyo's subway 17 years ago. Some 5,000 officers fanned out across the Tokyo area to hand out fresh photos of the fugitive, Katsuya Takahashi, and monitor transportation hubs to keep him from escaping the capital.

 

Takahashi, 54, is on Japan's most wanted list for his suspected role in the attack, which killed 13 people and injured more than 6,000. (AP)
