Eight students were injured Friday in a hammer attack at a university campus in the suburbs of Tokyo, according to police.

An emergency call was made around 3:45 p.m., reporting an attack by a student at Hosei University's Tama Campus in Machida. The assailant, a 22-year-old South Korean woman, was subdued and arrested, according to the Metropolitan Police Department and fire department officials.

Investigative sources quoted the suspect as saying she was "frustrated" after being ignored by a group of students and used a hammer she found on campus.

The eight students sustained only minor injuries. The suspect was swinging the hammer around inside a building on the campus before being subdued by those around her, the police said.

Nigeria’s Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested 105 individuals, including four Chinese nationals, for allegedly running an internet fraud scheme targeting hotels in Europe and beyond.

The suspects were apprehended on Thursday during a raid at an apartment in Abuja, the nation’s capital, EFCC spokesperson Dele Oyewale said in a statement. The group is accused of operating a fraudulent “hotel review job” scheme, he added.

Investigations are underway, and all suspects will face trial once inquiries are complete, Oyewale confirmed.

This follows a similar crackdown last month when nearly 800 people, including 148 Chinese and 40 Filipino nationals, were arrested in connection with a global fraud operation. That scheme reportedly involved luring victims through romance scams and defrauding them with fake cryptocurrency investments.

Authorities say the arrests underline Nigeria’s commitment to tackling cybercrime and international fraud networks.
