Police said his eyes and mouth had been beaten.

Specifically his eyes and mouth? Not nose or cheeks or chin? Seems like an odd case or an odd statement.

Um. Sounds like mysterious and inscrutable. Hope the police crack the case soon.

Not another case of beating a homeless man to death? I hope they get the culprit(s) pronto.

Be careful in Japan, not saying it's the most dangerous place in the world, but with incidents like these rising lately, not as safe as some would have you believe.
