Various local incidents have been reported across the Kyushu region, particularly within Fukuoka Prefecture. In mid October, two men were arrested for alcohol-related driving offenses in Kama City and Jonan Ward, Fukuoka City. One suspect, a 79-year-old man, was arrested after a breathalyzer test showed alcohol levels exceeding the legal limit, while another man was arrested for suspected intoxicated bicycle riding.

By early November, additional incidents were reported. In Kawasaki Town, a 72-year-old man was arrested for suspected drunk driving after rear-ending a vehicle. In Fukuoka City, a restaurant employee was arrested on suspicion of a hit-and-run that injured two people, and a building fire occurred in the Tenjin area.
