A US Navy officer was arrested Sunday on suspicion of drunk driving in Okinawa, where a US base worker's alleged involvement in the death of a local woman last month has sparked anger among residents, Kyodo reported.
The incident prompted Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida to lodge a protest with US Ambassador Caroline Kennedy. The Defense Ministry also protested to Lt. Gen. Lawrence Nicholson, the US military commander in Okinawa.
The Okinawa prefectural police arrested 21-year-old Aimee Mejia, a petty officer 2nd class stationed at the US Kadena base.
