Neighborhood Watch – Sumo Style

Posted on January 11, 2004 by glasscastle

A group of professional Sumo wrestlers has started a neighbourhood
watch scheme in a crime-stricken district in Tokyo.

The 15 wrestlers from the Isenoumi stable pound the streets of Edogawa
Ward, eastern Tokyo, in pairs or groups of three from 11pm until dawn,
reports Kyodo News.

Local shop owner Kazuo Ishizuka, 55, said: "Thanks to this patrol,
I feel safe and can sleep well every night. I don’t think anyone would
commit a crime if they encounter a big sumo wrestler."..
