HPD seeking witnesses to fatal ‘slingshot’ collision on H-1
The Honolulu Police Department is seeking witnesses in the collision on the H-1 freeway earlier this month that led to the death of two men in a three-wheeled motorcycle.
Police say the fatal collision happened at about 9:27 p.m. on Aug. 4 near the airport after the driver of a white Toyota Tacoma pickup truck reportedly rear-ended the Polaris Slingshot, a three-wheeled motorcycle, while heading eastbound on H-1, before the Dillingham Boulevard exit (18B).
The driver suffered multiple injuries and was taken to Queen’s Medical Center in serious condition.
The two men in the Polaris Slingshot, ages 55 and 56, were pronounced dead at the scene. Neither were wearing helmets.
