Japanese police have arrested a 37-year-old construction worker on suspicion of serial robbery. He didn't commit crimes for money, he committed crimes to relieve stress. “I was so excited that my palms were sweaty and I was worried that someone would catch me,” he told police.
Japanese police said Wednesday they had detained a man who confessed to breaking into more than 1,000 homes as an unconventional way to relieve stress.
The man was taken into custody on Monday, November 25th, at a facility in the southern Japanese city of Dazaifu. A self-employed man and his wife heard strange noises coming from their garden. They noticed the stranger and called the police.

The person arrested was a 37-year-old male office worker from Dazaifu who was financially well-off. He didn't break into homes because he wanted to make money; crime became his hobby.
In an interview with police, he admitted he had done it over 1,000 times and had no intention of stopping. He didn't take anything with him during the robbery, just trying to see if he could get caught. This was supposed to give him more emotion. – My hobby is breaking into other people's homes, and I've done it over 1,000 times, – he said.
