Man Taken to Hospital With Gunshot Wound; Suspect Arrested

Honolulu police have detained a 33-year-old man on suspicion of attempted murder after a 31-year-old was delivered to the Queens’s Medical Center with an apparent gunshot wound. The police began their investigation after the victim was dropped off at the hospital from Ewa Beach on Tuesday at 4:53 a.m., suffering from a serious torso injury.

The incident reportedly took place on Papipi Road in Ewa Beach, where an altercation occurred between the two men. During the conflict, the suspect allegedly threatened to kill the victim before shooting him and fleeing the scene in a vehicle. A compressed-air pellet rifle was later recovered by authorities. The suspect turned himself in and was arrested shortly before 1:30 p.m. on Thursday, with charges pending, according to the Honolulu Police Department.
