A father left his 7-year-old son unattended on Mount Fuji. The family was hiking on the mountain. The boy became exhausted. He could not continue the trek. His father did not stop.
Instead, he forced the child to wait by himself on the path. The father walked ahead to complete the ascent. The child remained stranded on the mountain for hours with no adult around. Nobody looked after him.
Police officers later learned of the incident. They issued a warning to the father for abandoning his young son unattended on the mountain during their family hike.
