Honolulu police were dispatched at 11:15 p.m. Saturday to a residence in Waianae after receiving multiple 911 calls about a neighbor using the front-end loader to “ram multiple cars into the home.”
A dispute Saturday night between neighbors in Hawaii escalated to a shooting that left four people dead after one man attempted to use a front-end loader to push multiple cars into a home, according to police.
The 58-year-old man driving the front-end loader, a massive construction vehicle used to scoop and haul materials, is suspected of killing three women before another man shot and killed him, Honolulu police said Sunday in a news release. Two other people were also shot and critically wounded.
Police took a 42-year-old man into custody at the scene and charged him with second-degree murder in the death of the other gunman, according to a statement.

Honolulu shooting leaves 4 dead, 2 injured
Honolulu officers were dispatched at 11:15 p.m. Saturday to a residence in Waianae after receiving multiple 911 calls about a neighbor using the front-end loader to “ram multiple cars into the home,” police said.
Before police arrived, the suspect operating the heavy machinery opened fire on several people in the carport who attempted to flee, police said.
Among those killed in the gunfire were three women, ages 29, 34 and 36.
A 31-year-old man and a 52-year-old woman were transported to a nearby hospital to receive treatment for life-threatening injuries sustained in the shooting, police said. It was not immediately clear whether they were expected to survive.
During the confrontation, a man who lived at the home fatally shot the suspect with a handgun, police said.
Investigators later discovered that the suspect had also been attempting to shoot at four 55-gallon drums being hauled in the front-end loader “containing an unknown fuel,” police said. The Honolulu Fire Department’s Hazmat team was eventually called in to safely remove the drums.
Police have not yet identified any of the victims or the two men who exchanged gunfire. USA TODAY left a message Monday morning for Honolulu police that was not immediately returned.
Honolulu police had responded to another dispute in 2023
Lt. Deena Thoemmes said at a Sunday news conference that in 2023, police responded to a previous incident involving a disagreement between the same neighbors, local outlets reported.
In a statement Monday to USA TODAY, Honolulu Mayor Rick Blangiardi said the shooting is “a painful reminder of the violence that has impacted Waianae too often in recent weeks.”
Referencing four other “high-profile” shootings in the area in the past month, Blangiardi called on the city and county governments to take urgent action.
“I am deeply saddened and alarmed by the tragic shooting that occurred last night in Waianae,” Blangiardi said in his statement. “This incident, involving neighbors, has shaken our community to its core … it is crucial that we come together as a community to support one another and take meaningful steps to prevent these tragedies.”

3 women killed, gunman dead in Hawaii after dispute between neighbors leads to gunfire

Three people were killed and two others injured in a shooting at a home stemming from a dispute between neighbors on Saturday night in Hawaii, police said. The shooter was also fatally shot by a resident, who was arrested on a second-degree murder charge.
Witnesses reported that a 58-year-old man was using a front-end loader to ram cars into the home where a family gathering was taking place, then opened fire at people gathered in the carport, fatally shooting three women at the residence in Waianae, a community about 30 miles west of downtown Honolulu, Honolulu police detective Lt. Deena Thoemmes said at a news conference.
At some point, a 42-year-old man who lived in the home fatally shot the suspect with a handgun, she said at a news conference. A police spokesperson did not immediately respond to a telephone message or an email asking for details about why the resident was arrested.
The women who were killed were 34, 36 and 29, Thoemmes said. A 31-year-old man and a 52-year-old woman were taken to the hospital in critical condition, she said.
The suspect, who was not identified, had four 55-gallon drums containing an unknown fuel in the front-end loader, Thoemmes said. Witnesses reported that he fired rounds into them but police have not confirmed that yet, she said.
The shootings are the latest of several shootings in recent weeks in the area that have led to police to pledge to work to fight gun violence, Police Chief Joe Logan said at the news conference. But he said Saturday’s shootings were not related to the earlier ones. He suggested it would be difficult for police to prevent such a targeted act stemming from a dispute unless someone reached out earlier.
“There have been several incidents in the previous months and weeks, but this incident is not related to those. This incident happened as a result of neighbors. So I want to reassure the public that this is not a random act, but a targeted one,” Logan said.
Prior to this incident, there had been three shootings in Waianae in a span of about a week, HawaiiNewsNow reported.
Logan previously said there would be an increased law enforcement presence in the area, the station reported.
“The Honolulu Police Department is increasing, providing more resources in the areas of patrol and plain clothes,” Logan said. “We’ll be working with our federal partners, to saturate the area and to patrol the area in greater numbers.”

![Four dead and two injured in ‘neighbor-on-neighbor’ shooting at Hawaii home – Washington Examiner Four dead and two injured in ‘neighbor-on-neighbor’ shooting at Hawaii home – Washington Examiner](https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/AP22175105482718-scaled.jpg.optimal.jpg)
Four people are dead and two are injured after a shooting at a home in Waianae, Hawaii, on Saturday.
Honolulu police described a bizarre scene, with 911 calls coming in around 11:15 p.m. local time describing a man using a front loader to ram cars into a neighbor’s home. The suspect then opened fire as people attempted to flee the scene, fatally shooting three and injuring two before being fatally shot by a resident of the home.
The resident, a 42-year-old male, has been arrested on suspicion of second-degree murder.
Police said the front loader was carrying 55-gallon drums containing an “unknown fuel,” and that the suspect driving the front loader fired rounds into the containers. The suspect is a 58-year-old male.
Honolulu Police Department Chief Arthur Logan described the shooting as a “neighbor-on-neighbor dispute.” Homicide Lt. Deena Thoemmes also revealed that police had been called to the neighborhood in 2023 due to a dispute between the same neighbors.
The three people dead are all women either in their late 20s or mid-30s, while the two injured are a 31-year-old man and a 52-year-old woman.
