Attempted-murder and firearm charges are pending tonight against a 29-year-old man who allegedly fired three shots at a man and woman early Friday morning in Kalihi.

The man, who was arrested by Kalihi Crime Reduction Unit officers Saturday at 12:30 p.m., is a felon with three convictions.

Police said the shots were fired at a man, 27, and woman, 23, who is the girlfriend of the suspect. The couple were in a truck at 2:40 a.m. when they saw the suspect running toward them. The couple drove off and one of the three shots struck the truck, police said.

The gunman was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and being a felon in posession of a firearm.
