The Chinese Embassy in Japan on Friday issued a new security advisory following media reports that a Chinese national was attacked with tear gas near Tokyo's Ueno area on Thursday night, with suitcases belonging to the victim and four companions, containing 420 million yen ($2.73 million) in cash, were robbed. The suspects remain at large, prompting the embassy to again urge Chinese citizens to avoid traveling to Japan in the near term.

中国驻日本大使馆周五发布了新的安全通告，此前媒体报道称一名中国公民周四晚在东京上野地区遭到催泪瓦斯袭击，受害者及其四名同伴的手提箱内含4.2亿日元（273万美元）现金被抢走。嫌疑人仍在逃，使使馆再次敦促中国公民近期避免前往日本。
Among the victims, a Chinese man in his 40s said he was sprayed with what appeared to be tear gas, after which three suitcases loaded into a passenger vehicle were stolen. Around the same time, a car was seen fleeing after hitting a man in his 50s nearby, leading police to suspect the suspects committed a hit-and-run after the robbery, according to Kyodo News.受害者中，一名40多岁的中国男子表示，他被喷射疑似催泪瓦斯的物质，随后三个装上乘用车的行李箱被盗。据共同社报道，大约同一时间，一辆汽车撞上附近一名50多岁男子后逃逸，警方怀疑嫌疑人在抢劫后肇事逃逸。
A local woman in her 50s living near the scene told Kyodo News that the Okachimachi area is known as a jewelry district and has seen robbery cases in the past. It's frightening that such an incident has happened, she said.一位住在案发现场附近的五十多岁当地妇女告诉共同社，冈町地区以珠宝区闻名，过去曾发生过抢劫案。她说，发生这样的事件令人恐惧。
