      <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Tokyo, Jan 28 (IANS):</strong> The Japanese police arrested an armed man early Friday morning after an 11-hour standoff during which he allegedly attacked three medical professionals who made a visit to his home near Tokyo.</p>\r\n
      <p style="text-align: justify;">The man aged in his 50s to 70s armed with what has been described as a hunting gun, shot one of the medical workers in the abdomen, injured another with tear gas and took a third hostage, Xinhua news agency reported, citing the local reports.</p>\r\n
      <p style="text-align: justify;">The injured worker, who was a 41-year-old physiotherapist, has since undergone surgery, but his condition has yet to be made public.</p>\r\n
      <p style="text-align: justify;">The hostage was a 44-year-old male doctor, local police said, who had no vital signs when rescued by the police after the 11-hour standoff, the police said.</p>\r\n
      <p style="text-align: justify;">The medical worker who was attacked with tear gas was also taken to hospital.</p>\r\n
      <p style="text-align: justify;">The man was arrested after police finally stormed the house in Saitama Prefecture.</p>\r\n
      <p style="text-align: justify;">The three medical workers were reportedly visiting the man to offer their support and condolences following a death in the man's family.</p>\r\n
      <p style="text-align: justify;">They arrived at the man's home at around 9:00 p.m. local time on Thursday evening, with the standoff continuing well into the early hours of Friday morning.</p>\r\n
      <p style="text-align: justify;">Around 110 local residents were evacuated, and elementary and junior high schools in the area will remain closed on Friday.</p>\r\n
