A 37-year-old Chinese man in the city of Shizuoka, Japan, was arrested Saturday after fatally stabbing the board director of a language school where he taught, police said.

The suspect, identified as Li Zhizhong, was arrested at the scene on suspicion of killing Yasuhiko Ishihara, 59, at the Shizuoka Japanese Education Center.

Police who were dispatched to the scene a little after 11 a.m. found Ishihara in a pool of blood in the first floor lobby and Li standing outside the building with a knife, saying he was to blame.

Ishihara was pronounced dead some two hours later.

While Li admitted to the stabbing, he refused to tell investigators of his motive.

The language center opened in May 1990 and had courses teaching Japanese to Asians and Chinese to Japanese people.
