Police think girl was targeted because she had cell phone

This is really chilling. The killer of a 7-year-old girl in Nara last Thursday may have targeted her because she always had a cell phone hung around her neck when commuting to and from school, police sources said Monday, according to Japan Today.

"The police suspect the killer was looking for a child with a cell phone to send photos to the kin by using the phone as was carried out in the case, the sources said.
