J’S Racing President Junichi Umemoto arrested
In a very bizarre moment, J's Racing president Junichi Umemoto was arrested on 22nd January in Osaka for a murder charges. He would have not been charges the murder attempt had not he flee the scene.
Umemoto initially brushed a pedestrian with his car, but flee the scene thinking it was a serious accident. One of the victim friend 39 year old Eiji Fujikawa, tried to stop Umemoto from leaving by jumping onto the car and holding onto the car side mirror.
Umemoto continued to drive approximately 100 meters with Fujikawa hanging from the mirror. Fujikawa suffered a fractured skull from the incident and now remains in hospital, unconscious and in critical condition. Fujikawa pass away a few days later.
More bad news follow that Hot version DVD had decided to remove the entire CR-Z Battle segment in which the J’s racing CR-Z and Umemoto were present.
My condolences to Fujikawa's family.
