A confrontation outside a popular Haleiwa restaurant Friday night ended in a shooting that left two men dead and a third seriously wounded.

Honolulu police had little to say Saturday about the deadly incident but family members identified the two men killed as Victor “Dusky” Toledo, 37, and nephew Dustin Young, 25. The wounded man is 20 years old.

Police said the shooting erupted in the restaurant parking lot shortly after 10 p.m. Joe Lazar, owner of Haleiwa Joe’s Seafood Grill, said he was at home about 300 yards from the restaurant when he heard six to nine pops that sounded like fireworks. His neighbor called him and said he thought it was gunfire.

Lazar called the restaurant and found out about the shooting.

“I was relieved that none of my guests were caught in the crossfire,” he said Saturday. “And the crew was all safe.”

Lazar said Toledo and Young are well-known in the small North Shore community and that the shooting may have stemmed from a long-standing feud. He declined to say if the men had come out of Haleiwa Joe’s just before the shots were fired. The restaurant normally closes at 10 p.m. on Fridays.

“It’s just sad,” he said. “There’s a lot of hurting families because of it.”

An Emergency Medical Services report said one man died at the scene.

A witness who did not want to be identified said he saw the 20-year-old and a fourth man run from the parking lot. They were caught by police on a side street several hundred yards away. Police would not say whether a suspect was in police custody; no arrests had been made.

Honolulu Fire Department divers assisted police Saturday in searching the waters at the Haleiwa Small Boat Harbor, according to HFD spokesman Capt. Malcolm Medrano. Police would not say what they were looking for.

Haleiwa Joe’s was closed for lunch Saturday because police were still at the scene investigating, Lazar said. By Saturday night, the restaurant was busy again.

Lazar said he’s received lots of expressions of concern and “encouragement from the community.”

Another Haleiwa resident, who declined to give his name, said the two parties involved come from big families known in the neighborhood.

“I hope the families don’t keep this going,” he said. “I hope they can squash it.”

A fisherman at the harbor said Young was the winner of the North Shore Hanapa‘a Jackpot Fishing Tournament in June.
