North Shore traffic disrupted following dispute

Advertiser Staff

The Hale'iwa bypass remains closed following a domestic dispute this morning that forced police to close the intersection near the Joseph P. Leong road.

The road was closed after a woman called from a property in the area at 8:27 a.m. and told police a shot had been fired. Shortly after her call, another shot was fired, police said.

The shots weren't believed to have been fired at anyone, police said. A 51-year-old man who had been running around the property with a backpack surrendered to police at 10:20 a.m. Police said he stepped out of the bushes on a pig farm to surrender.

He was taken to the Wahiawa police station and booked on first-degree reckless endangering.

Officers initially had been unable to pass the gate surrounding the home because several pit bulls were loose and roaming the property.
