Two men from Mexico were arrested yesterday in Pearl City on suspicion of distributing black-tar heroin.

Police seized a "significant" amount of the drug in an undercover operation that led to the arrests of the two men, ages 22 and 30, at 1858 Waimano Home Road, said Honolulu police narcotics/vice Capt. Kevin Lima, who declined comment on how much heroin was involved.

The bust occurred at 4:35 p.m. and both men were booked on suspicion of first-degree promotion of a dangerous drug. The two were still in custody this morning.

Boat aground off Waimanalo

Officials may attempt to pull a Honolulu-based 59-foot fishing boat off a reef south of Waimanalo Beach Park today at high tide. The Kay ran aground at midnight with six people aboard. There were no reports of injuries or fuel spills.

Coast Guard Lt. Cmdr. Todd Offut said a contractor has been hired by the boat’s owner to pump about 3,000 gallons of diesel fuel off the boat. High tide was expected at 2:30 p.m., and officials will try to pump out some of the fuel and free the boat then, said Offut. If the attempt fails, all the fuel will be removed and an effort will be made to free the boat at the next high tide.

Man sought for questioning

Police were trying to find a 45-year-old man wanted on parole revocation and traffic warrants for questioning about an Aug. 12 robbery at Kahala Mall in which a red 2001 Honda Elite moped was stolen, said CrimeStoppers coordinator Detective Letha DeCaires.
