A man in a hat enters the bar with the other man on fire.

I was pushed out the door to see if there was a physical fight, and then I went back into the store.

And after just a minute, he comes out with what appears to be a weapon in his hand, then looks around, puts the weapon in his pocket and runs away.

Police and an ambulance arrived immediately, but the shop owner, 46-year-old woman Kim Mo, was stabbed to death by a knife wielded by a man.

Mo Lee, a 56-year-old man who entered with the criminal, was also seriously injured.

“There’s a sound like furniture hitting each other. Suddenly there’s a loud bang…”

Kim, who died four days ago, filed a complaint with the police against his former lover, 56-year-old Jo, saying, “I was assaulted and threatened.”

The police immediately registered Mr. Kim as a ‘victim victim of safety measures’ and provided him with a smart watch.

However, Mr. Cho came to the store that afternoon and threatened him, and was arrested as a current criminal.

The police applied for an arrest warrant, but the prosecution rejected the warrant.

The reason was that “a complementary investigation is necessary, and there is no fear of destroying evidence or escaping.”

In the end, Mr. Cho committed a horrific crime two days after being released from prison.

Jo, who was being pursued by the police, was found dead in a hillside in Guro-gu, Seoul about 13 hours after the incident, and the police believe that he took his own life.

Police will investigate the exact circumstances of the incident as soon as the injured man recovers.
