Presumably not completely happy with his off-the-shelf shoes, Seitaro Kasai decided to give them something of a personal touch; however rather than simply choosing some lavishly coloured laces, the 31-year-old inexplicably opted to add several nails to his footwear – each one sticking out a millimetre or two from the toe area.
With his wearable weapons complete, Kasai then went in search of a victim, and after choosing a 28-year-old woman in front of Tokyo’s busy Shibuya Station, he set about kicking her repeatedly in the calf muscles. Yet despite suffering injuries, the unnamed lady was strong enough to drag the deranged Kasai into a nearby police box, where he was promptly arrested.
Officers later seized two more pairs of similarly modified shoes from Kasai’s home, and under questioning the accused explained his victim was chosen due to a strong desire to “injure the legs of a woman with a good figure.”

It seems like the guy has problems. Give him time and he should HEEL. I am sure he will rediscover his SOLE, once the police have TIED-UP the case. He SHOE has problems! It’s amazing what people get a KICK out off! He appears to have POLISHED the technique. He was lucky not to be SOCKed by her. I think I’ve NAILED the puns here.
*I know… I know…
hahaha, love the puns albeit very corny

This is a fairly common sickness. In New York, there are five to ten guys who are constantly in and out of jail for stomping on the feet of beautiful women.

Wow, what a strange news story… I thought this might be a wind-up at first, but it seems not. Bizarre!
