A 23-year-old janitor for PayPay Dome was arrested on suspicion of stealing a baseball glove belonging to Tsuyoshi Wada, a pitcher of the Softbank Hawks. The suspect allegedly stole the item in the evening of Aug. 19 and sold it to earn money. More missing items have been reported among other Hawks members, and so the police are investigating his involvement with other cases. Source: NHK / News24
