Kurou Otoharada

Kurou Otoharada (音原田 九郎, Otoharada Kurō) was a criminal and the first person Light killed with the notebook.

Synopsis
He was first seen on the news holding an elementary school teacher and a group of students hostages. When Light wrote his name down he waited forty seconds and nothing happened so he though it was fake. Right before he turned it off it was announced that Otoharada had mysteriously collapsed and died.
