19-year-old arrested after shooting near Ala Wai Community Park

Honolulu police have arrested a 19-year-old man on suspicion of second-degree attempted murder following a shooting in the area of the Ala Wai Community Park.

The suspect turned himself in today at the Alapai Police Station at around 6 p.m., CrimeStoppers said in a news release. Police have identified two suspects in the shooting and had already arrested one of them.

The suspect arrested today was wanted after a Monday evening shooting in which two male suspects allegedly shot at a group of people they were arguing with in the area of the Ala Wai Community Park.

The suspects left during the argument but returned, and one of them pulled out a gun and fired at the group.

One person in the group was shot and seriously injured, although sustained non-life-threatening injuries.
