Motorcyclist who died after crash in Punchbowl area identified
The Honolulu Medical Examiner’s office identified a Honolulu man who died from his injuries in a Punchbowl area motorcycle crash this week as Douglas A. Farias Sr.
Farias, 55, died of multiple blunt force injuries, and the manner of his death was ruled an accident, the office said.
Police said Farias was heading south on Emerson Street when his motorcycle struck a car going west on Green Street at about 8:30 a.m. Tuesday.
Farias, who was wearing a helmet, was taken to a hospital in critical condition and died Thursday.
Police said speed on the part of Farias may have been a factor in the crash.
