Weekend at Kato's

Friday, July 30, 2010

The oldest man in Toyko may have died 30 years ago.

 He was thought to be the oldest man in Tokyo -- but when officials went to congratulate Sogen Kato on his 111th birthday, they uncovered mummified skeletal remains lying in his bed.  Officials grew suspicious when they went to visit Kato at his address, but his granddaughter told them he "doesn't want to see anybody". Welfare officials had been trying to meet Kato since early this year but when they went to visit, family members repeatedly chased them away. Police are now investigating the family on possible fraud charges.

Have a great long weekend. Talk to you Tuesday! :)
