The motorcycle officer said he gave the woman a speeding ticket about 6:40 p.m. after pulling her over as she was traveling east-bound on the Moanalua Freeway. The officer said the woman became irate and began swearing at him as he walked away.

The officer said he got on his motorcycle and had stopped another vehicle about a tenth of a mile away from where he had given the woman the speeding ticket. He said he had just gotten off the motorcycle when he heard a car horn and looked back to see the car belonging to the woman he had just ticketed drive three or four feet over the shoulder line and head directly toward him.

The officer said he jumped out of the way and was not injured as the woman roared past, screaming obscenities and displaying her middle finger.

The woman surrendered yesterday at the main police station and was arrested for suspicion of first-degree terroristic threatening.

Fight leads to weapons arrest

Legal problems for a Village Park man who allegedly hit his wife in the face grew substantially yesterday when the wife turned over her husband's unregistered assault pistol to police officers who were responding to a domestic abuse complaint.

The woman, 40, told police she had been arguing with her husband, 40, about 1:30 p.m. at the couple's home on Kalae Street when he punched her in the face and threatened to kill her.

After officers arrived and arrested the husband, the wife led them to the 9mm assault pistol, which was found to have a magazine capable of holding more than the legally allowed number of bullets, police said.

The husband was arrested on suspicion of abuse of a family or household member, second-degree terroristic threatening and a firearms violation.

Man faces felony charges

A 32-year-old Kalihi man was arrested on suspicion of multiple felony offenses after a police officer spotted a stalled van in Manoa last night and stopped to see what was wrong.

The officer saw the man pushing the van along University Avenue near Maile Way about 10:50 p.m. and asked what the problem was. The man said the battery died while he was driving the van and that he was pushing it in hopes of getting it started again.

The police officer ran a check on the van and found it was registered to a Sand Island area medical technology company that had reported the van stolen on Monday morning.

The officer then arrested the man he found pushing the van on suspicion of unauthorized control of a propelled vehicle and driving without a license.
