The woman, identified as Keiko Altaira Hanafi, was found stabbed and in a critical condition by a police officer at around 11.40am in the flat where she lived with her parents. She was later confirmed dead at a hospital.
According to the police, a neighbour made an emergency call after hearing a woman scream next door. They also reported that a man in a black outfit had left the flat.
Shortly afterwards, a man was hit and killed by a train on the JR Tokaido Line. The driver of the train witnessed a person wearing black clothes jumping a fence and entering the tracks.
The stabbing occurred in a residential area about 500 metres (1,600 feet) west of JR Maisaka Station in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka Prefecture.
A witness in his 70s said he saw a trail of blood from the doorstep to a car park outside.
