Overview
- Police arrested three men on suspicion of building trespass after they entered the Tokyo Dome during Arashi’s final concert on May 31 and were detained by staff during the performance.
- Investigators say the entries were separate and unconnected and that each suspect used a different method to bypass access controls.
- One 25-year-old, identified as Ryoya Shiromura, used a vendor’s staff ID to enter and told officers he wanted to watch the show.
- A man in his 70s wore a helmet and carried a ladder to pose as a worker, shot about 500 digital photos from an empty seat, and admitted he planned to sell the images.
- Authorities have charged the three with building trespass and are probing how forged passes, misused staff IDs, and worker disguises slipped past security and what legal and commercial steps may follow.
