Advertiser Staff

A 35-year-old Waipahu man was arrested yesterday in connection with a first-degree sexual assault complaint filed on behalf of a 16-year-old girl. Police said the girl told a school counselor that she was assaulted in June and police were notified.

A suspect was positively identified during a "field show-up" and was arrested, police said.

Police said they were conferring with the prosecutor's office in hopes of bringing charges against the suspect as quickly as possible.

Alleged threats land 52-year-old man in jail

A 52-year-old Pacific Heights man was arrested yesterday for allegedly making threats toward a 30-year-old man as well as police.

Police were told that the older man called the younger man's workplace Aug. 7 and told the younger man's employer that he planned to kill the younger man.

The older man then went to the younger man's workplace and informed the younger man's supervisor of his plan to kill the younger man, police said. They said man who was the target of the threats was not at work when the threats was made.

Police said the older man was served this past Sunday with a temporary restraining order and soon after called police dispatchers and allegedly threatened to kill the younger man and "anyone else that got in his way."

Yesterday, members of the downtown police district's crime reduction unit located the man accused of making the threats and arrested him for suspicion of first-degree terroristic threatening.
