ASSOCIATED PRESS Rescuers work at the scene of an attack in Kawasaki, near Tokyo Tuesday, May 28, 2019. TOKYO — A man swinging a knife attacked commuters waiting at a crowded bus stop just outside Tokyo during Tuesday morning’s rush hour, wounding at least 19 people, including 13 children, Japanese authorities said. The victims were lined up at a bus stop near Noborito Park in Kawasaki City when the man attacked. The station, citing police, said that a bus driver told officials that a man holding a knife in each hand walked toward the bus and started slashing children. In 2001, a man killed eight children and wounded 13 others in a knife attack at an elementary school in the city of Osaka.
