陳姓男子搭車前往苗栗縣一處加油站加油時,因不滿加油站員工依規定詢問自備油桶加油原因,竟情緒失控、自副駕駛座拿出鐵鎚朝該員工作勢揮打恐嚇。苗栗地院法官近期審理後,依恐嚇危害安全罪,判處陳男有期徒刑4個月,可易科罰金。
判決書指出,陳男於今年2月間搭乘友人駕駛的轎車前往苗栗縣一處加油站,陳男持自備的油桶準備裝填汽油,當時值班員工詢問其自備油桶加油的用途與原因,不料陳男隨即返回副駕駛座取出1把鐵鎚,朝加油站員工作勢揮打。

過程中,陳男關閉車門時還不慎撞倒放置於門邊裝滿汽油的油桶,並將汽油分裝至空寶特瓶,導致汽油漫流至加油站地面逸漏,加油站人員見狀報警,警方調閱現場監視器畫面後,循線將陳男查緝到案。
苗栗地院法官審酌,陳男不思以和平、理性方式溝通,僅因加油站員工依規定詢問即持鐵鎚恐嚇,欠缺自我情緒管理能力及法治觀念;考量其已坦承犯行,惟尚未與被害人達成和解或賠償,兼衡其犯罪動機、待業等智識生活狀況,量處有期徒刑4個月,得易科罰金。全案仍可上訴。

A drug-driving accident occurred in the North District of Taichung City this morning. A 21-year-old man surnamed Huang lost control while driving his friend while turning left on Double Ten Road. The vehicle crashed into the overpass and sidewalk next to the Confucius Temple, and hit three 19-year-old students from the National Taiwan Sports University who were jogging in the morning. Two men and one woman suffered bruises and were sent to the hospital with no serious injuries. The police on-site quick screening confirmed that Mr. Huang was positive for drugs and the alcohol test was 0. He was transferred to the prosecutor on suspicion of public danger and was recommended for preventive detention.

The New Taipei City Police Department gave Ruifang Branch Chief Gao Jihong one demerit after investigation because he behaved inappropriately, violated anti-smoking regulations, and failed to stop the situation from getting out of control at a staff gathering.

During the cleaning operation of the exterior wall of the first phase of the Yilan Science Park building, a large crane suddenly overturned, causing two workers to fall from a height of 20 meters. The 65-year-old worker named Chen died on the spot, and the 63-year-old Ye man suffered fractures and serious injuries. Preliminary investigation showed that the accident was suspected to be caused by a mechanical failure of the boom. The operator has been questioned by police and the Occupational Safety Administration of the Ministry of Labor will lead the subsequent occupational accident investigation.

Gao Nan attempted to set a fire due to an argument with his family over the purchase of gasoline. Although he was stopped by his younger brother, he lit a napkin and caused oil stains. The Tainan District Court sentenced him to 1 year and 10 months in prison for attempted arson, suspended for 4 years, and ordered him to receive compulsory labor and legal education.

A fire broke out in a three-story house on Yunong Road in Tainan's East District at about 5 a.m. in the morning. Furniture and sundries on the first floor caught fire and thick smoke filled the house. The 66-year-old male owner of the house escaped, and the 64-year-old female owner was trapped on the second floor. Firefighters broke down the door to search and put out the fire within 3 minutes. The couple both suffered minor choking injuries and were sent to the hospital for treatment.

Several employees of the Toyama City Government in Japan were suspected of falsely reporting the population in the 2025 census and including household registrations without actual residence in the census data, which increased the number of ghost households in the city by approximately 2,936. As a result, they overpaid a total of 60 million yen (approximately NT$12.1 million) in local taxes from the central government. The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications reported it to the police, and Toyama Prefectural police searched the office of the Municipal Planning and Coordination Section responsible for the census on the morning of the 3rd.
