Pickaxe Man Attacks… “Robust Car as Strong as a President” that Saved Beat Takeshi

“Takeshi has at least two different cars. They probably cost 50 million yen each. He often says that he buys the most expensive car of its type. It’s hard to tell from the outside, but I’m sure it has a lot of security features.

A major media person who knows Beat Takeshi (74) said.

Takeshi was rescued by his sturdy VIP car when he was attacked by a man with a pickaxe while driving a Rolls Royce driven by one of his staff members through the station’s premises after a live appearance on “New Information 7days Newscaster” (TBS) at 11:30 p.m. on September 4. According to eyewitnesses, the man repeatedly smashed the windshield of the car, but it was so strong that it was only partially damaged and no one was injured.

Anyway, I’m glad you’re okay first of all…!

“A TBS security guard, who was a few dozen meters away, noticed something was wrong and seized the man and called 110. 15 minutes later, a policeman came to the scene and found that the man was carrying a small sword with a blade of about 10cm, so he was arrested on suspicion of violating the Firearms Act.

The man is in his 40s and lives in Chiba Prefecture. In June this year, he had ambushed Takeshi’s car in front of TBS. He told the police, “I wanted to join the entertainment industry, so I got down on my knees and asked him to drive me, but he ignored me. It is believed that he had been repeatedly targeting Takeshi after his live broadcast programs.

Signs of an incident” felt by the co-analyst

It seems that there were signs of an incident. On September 5, the day after the incident, analyst Shinichiro Azumi, who co-stars with Takeshi, said on TBS Radio’s “Shinichiro Azumi’s Sunday Tengoku”.

On September 5, the day after the incident, Shinichiro Azumi, who co-stars with Takeshi, said on TBS Radio’s “Shinichiro Azumi’s Sunday Tengoku”: “Mr. Takeshi takes disciples, so when a volunteer comes to ……, he is not allowed. I’ve seen many times that people come to Takeshi’s car. I’ve seen it many times, and it’s a bit frenetic or excited. I imagine that something happened as an extension of that.

About Takeshi’s car, Anna Azumi said the following.

“It’s not the kind of car you usually see on the street, but a VIP car like the president of a country would drive. It’s not the kind of car you usually see on the street.

This is not the same car that was involved in the incident, but this magazine also witnessed a white Mercedes Benz SUV that Takeshi got into at NHK last July. Indeed, the sense of dignity is amazing. Just looking at it, I was overwhelmed.

Takeshi was saved by a top-of-the-line car with perfect security features. I’m glad he’s okay, but it’s not easy being super popular…
