Around 20 people were injured at a luxury shopping complex in central Tokyo on Monday after a man sprayed a substance inside, police and fire department officials said.

Tokyo police spokesman Yusuke Koide told the AFP news agency that a man sprayed an unidentified substance at an ATM on the ground floor of the building, while a local fire department official said "around 20 people were injured" after a report of a "smell."

Roads around the building in the shopping district of Ginza, where the mall is located, were blocked off following the incident, and fire trucks lined the street.
