Suspect in Kalaeloa barricade case appears in court
The 25-year-old Kapolei man who barricaded himself for nearly eight hours in a Kalaeloa home over the weekend appeared in Honolulu District Court today.
Patrick Chittock was initially arrested on suspicion of abuse of a household or family member and third-degree promotion of a dangerous drug Sunday morning after he barricaded himself at 11:30 p.m. Saturday at a home on 4000 block of Guadalcanal Drive. The abuse charge was later changed to third-degree assault. His bail was set at $3,000.
The standoff ended at 7:15 a.m. Sunday when Chittock was arrested at the home.
Chittock is scheduled for a preliminary hearing Jan. 7.
