2009 Westfield Caelum shooting

On June 19, 2009, four members of Shobatsu-shi Ichizoku, Shinobu Mizushima, Makoto Koizumi, Taiki Ueda and Kouki Kato killed 213 people and injuring 443 others in the Westfield shopping center in Caelum.

Incident
The shooting took place in the Westfield Caelum shopping centre, located 2.1 km from the city centre from Caelum. Mizushima, Koizumi, Ueda and Kate arrived at the shopping centre with their grey 2005 Mazda3 wagon. After arriving in the parking lot, they put on their ballistic vests and armed their M60 machine guns. According to Kato, the leader, Mizushima instructed his group not to speak Japanese so as to ensure that Bob Toshi is blamed for the shooting. When they enter the building (occupied by around 400+ citizens on each floor) via the door from the parking lot, they begin firing indiscriminately at the shoppers at their sight. They then walk to the Adidias store where they shoot everyone who were attempting to hide away from them.
