A man armed with a handgun, meanwhile, held up Nabarrette Store at 94-1141 Waipahu St. yesterday at 4:30 p.m. The suspect fled in a car that was driven by another man.

Man allowed to sleep off anger

Specialized Services Division officers resolved a barricade situation early today by allowing a 48-year-old man to sleep off his anger inside a Waipi'o Acres residence.

The man's 39-year-old girlfriend and another woman had been brought out of the Kauamea Place residence and sent to a safe house before police left the scene at 12:15 a.m. today. Police were called to the residence to intervene in an argument between the man and his girlfriend over her failed attempt yesterday to rescind a temporary restraining order.
