…of Sega/Sammy HD. Still a suspected case of bullet fire in his house. He’s safe. @mepian: Someone was trying to kill the president of Sega?

Naganuma went on to say that SEGA Sammy Holdings is cooperating with police as they look into the incident. Currently, no other information on the gunshots have been released, and it is not known if someone was trying to harm or kill Satomi.
What do you think of the reported gunshots? What do you think is the cause behind them?
