“This morning was pretty quiet,” a resident told Hawaii News Now. “(It’s) a quiet neighborhood around the cul-de-sac. The people are really friendly, and people walk their dogs around here. I’ve never had a problem with any noise or any problems, so this is a pretty peaceful neighborhood. I was very surprised and saddened about what happened.”
HPD said they have initiated a second-degree murder case.
The scene remained taped off into the afternoon hours as the investigation was ongoing.
No arrests have been made, and police have not released details on a potential suspect.
