Man struck, killed by car ID’d

The medical examiner’s office today identified the pedestrian who died Friday at Kapi'olani Medical Center-Pali Momi after being struck by a car near Halawa Heights Road as Stephen Tokunaga, 42, of Waipahu.

Tokunaga was crossing Ulune Street near Pohue Street at 7:40 a.m. when he was struck by a 1996 Honda driven by an 'Aiea man.

In an unrelated case, an autopsy determined that 25-year-old McKenna Victor died of heart failure and not from injuries related to the crash of his tow truck Thursday on Kamokila Boulevard and Nau Place in Kapolei.

Water restored following break

The area from Kalia Road to 1830 Ala Moana Blvd. was closed this morning because of a break in a 12-inch water main. Water service was also cut off to two hotels — Inn on the Park Condo and Doubletree Alana Hotel-Waikiki.

The water-main break was reported at 3:28 a.m. Water service to both hotels was restored by 7 a.m. and repair work was completed by mid-morning.
