In September of this year, police arrested a 21-year-old man and his 18-year-old younger brother, a high school student, for damaging cars by throwing raw eggs at them while they were driving on the Tomei Expressway in Oi Town, Kanagawa Prefecture.
The brothers reportedly threw approximately 500 raw eggs at the cars. Police are investigating further.
In the early morning and late at night of September 20th of this year, police received a series of reports of "cars being hit with raw eggs" on the northbound lane of the Tomei Expressway in Oi Town, Kanagawa Prefecture.
Based on witness testimonies and other evidence, police strongly suspected that a 21-year-old company employee from Hadano City, Kanagawa Prefecture, and his 18-year-old younger brother, a third-year high school student, threw raw eggs from a bridge over the expressway at a moving car, causing a dent in the roof.
Police arrested the brothers on suspicion of violating the Act on Punishment of Violent Acts and Property Damage.
According to the police, the two men obtained approximately 500 raw eggs through shoplifting and other means, and threw most of them at approximately 50 moving cars. Several cars reportedly had cracked windshields.
During questioning, the two reportedly confessed, "We did it as a prank. We enjoyed seeing the surprised faces of the drivers."
Two other boys were also reportedly at the scene.
Police plan to refer the two to the public prosecutor's office. November 10, 2015, 3:52 PM

Regarding an incident in November 2015 in which passersby were repeatedly hit with raw eggs on a street in Hyogo Ward, Kobe City, the Hyogo Police Station of the Hyogo Prefectural Police referred five boys, all 15 years old and first-year high school students from the same ward (who were in their third year of junior high school at the time), to prosecutors on April 1, 2016, on suspicion of assault and violation of the Act on Punishment of Violent Acts.
According to the police station, the boys were inspired by another incident that month in which another boy threw mayonnaise at a passerby. The boys stated, "We wanted to do something that would get attention. We were influenced by watching videos of people throwing raw eggs on Twitter. Stress from high school entrance exams was also a contributing factor."
The charges for which they were referred to prosecutors include throwing a raw egg at the right hand of a man in his 60s on the street in Shimosawa-dori, Hyogo Ward, on the night of November 30 last year. They are also charged with throwing raw eggs at the head and right elbow of a woman in her 60s on a street in Minato-cho, Hyogo Ward.
The boys admitted to the charges, stating, "We targeted elderly people because we thought we wouldn't get caught."
