Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida<\/a> was evacuated Saturday after someone threw an explosive device his way during a campaign event at a fishing port in western Japan.\u00a0<\/p>\n

No one was hurt in the incident and police tackled a suspect as panicking bystanders hurried away while smoke filled the air.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Kishida continued to campaign at Saikazaki port in Wakayama prefecture following the incident. The explosion occurred just before he was set to speak.<\/p>\n

A young man was arrested at the scene after he allegedly threw “the suspicious object,” according to Chief Cabinet Secretary Hirokazu Matsuno.<\/p>\n

“Elections are the core of democracy, and we should never tolerate threats or obstruction by violence,” Matsuno said.<\/p>\n

The secretary refused to comment on the suspect’s motive and background, and explained that authorities are still investigating.<\/p>\n

It wasn’t immediately clear what the explosive device was, or how many the suspect had. Some reports said it was a smoke or pipe bomb<\/a>, possibly with a delayed fuse.<\/p>\n

TV footage from the event showed Kishida’s security detail pointing to the ground near him, with the prime minister whipping around.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The camera then points at the crowd as uniformed and plainclothes officers converge on a young man in a white surgical mask and holding a long silver tube.<\/p>\n

As they work to remove the tube, a large explosion is heard near where Kishida has been standing and the crowd disperses.<\/p>\n

Kishida did not mention the explosion and returned to the Tokyo region later that night.<\/p>\n

Matsuno said he had instructed national police<\/a> to ensure their utmost effort for the protection of dignitaries who are visiting Japan leading up to the Group of Seven summit in May.<\/p>\n

Saturday’s attack comes ahead of national local elections, and following the shocking assassination of former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe<\/a> less than a year ago, leading to the resignation of top local and national police chiefs.<\/p>\n

Kishida was visiting the area to support his ruling party\u2019s candidate in a local election.<\/p>\n
