一名20岁的美国海军陆战队下士在日本冲绳那霸市一家酒店谋杀并抢劫了一名39岁的女性后被日本警方逮捕1。该士兵驻扎在冲绳普天间美军基地1。
日本首相高市早苗对此表示"非常遗憾"，并向美国提出了正式抗议1。美国驻日大使乔治·格拉斯表示"诚挚哀悼"，承诺全力配合调查1。
这起事件再次引发了对驻冲绳美军纪律的关注。根据统计，自1972年以来约有6000名美军人员在冲绳被捕，其中2024年共有80人被捕，为20年来最高1。美国在日本共驻扎约54000名军人，其中18000人为海军陆战队，多数部署在冲绳1。2017年曾发生美军前士兵因强奸谋杀当地女性被判终身监禁的案件1。
A 20-year-old US Marine stationed at Futenma Air Base in Okinawa has been arrested by Japanese police on suspicion of murdering and robbing a 39-year-old woman at a hotel in Naha, Okinawa 1. The suspect is a lance corporal assigned to the Marine Corps presence in the region 1.
Japanese Prime Minister Takayama Sanae expressed that she was "very regrettable" about the incident and lodged a formal protest with the United States, demanding strengthened military discipline among American forces 1. US Ambassador to Japan George Glass responded with "sincere condolences" and pledged full cooperation with the investigation 1.
The incident underscores persistent concerns about crimes committed by American military personnel in Okinawa. Approximately 54,000 US military personnel are stationed in Japan, with 18,000 Marines concentrated primarily in Okinawa 1. Since 1972, roughly 6,000 American military members have been arrested in the prefecture 1. In 2024 alone, 80 military personnel have been arrested—the highest annual figure in two decades 1. This case follows a 2017 incident in which a former US serviceman received a life sentence for rape and murder of a local woman 1.
