A father abandoned his 7-year-old son unattended on Mount Fuji. The family was trekking on the mountain. The boy got tired. He could not keep walking. His father did not halt his journey.
Instead, he forced the child to wait by himself on the path. The father walked ahead to complete the ascent. The child stayed alone on the mountain for hours with no supervision. Nobody watched him.
Police officers later learned of the incident. They issued a warning to the father for leaving his young son unattended on the mountain during their family hike.
