Tokyo prosecutors have dropped a vandalism case against singer-songwriter Chihiro Onitsuka following her arrest in November for allegedly kicking an ambulance.
The prosecutors did not disclose the reasons for the decision, reached Friday.
On Nov. 28, Onitsuka, known for the 2000 hit single "Gekko" (moonlight), was arrested on a street in the Japanese capital's Ebisu area after being reported by emergency services authorities following her alleged act of vandalism.
The 41-year-old singer had called an ambulance for a friend who was feeling unwell.
She told police at the time she kicked the vehicle "after a passer-by said something unpleasant, making me panic," according to the Metropolitan Police Department.
