Fukuoka police arrested Hayato Doue today on suspicion of indecent assault.

According to the arrest reports, at around 10:30pm on August 19, a twenty-year-old woman was walking in an apartment complex on her way home when Doue grabbed her hair and held down her face.  Footage from security cameras in the area and a description from the victim led police to Doue.

Doue has apparently admitted to the charges.
