A mixed martial arts fighter has been arrested and charged with 14 counts of first-degree terroristic threatening, resisting arrest and driving under the influence of an intoxicant, Kaua'i police said yesterday.
LeBeau Lagmay, 26, of Kapa'a, was arrested after police saw him "burning rubber" around 3:30 a.m. Friday while leaving a 7-Eleven store in Líhu'e, police said.
Officers attempted to stop Lagmay, but he continued heading north, leading officers in a pursuit, police said. After entering the Wilcox Community Hospital parking lot, Lagmay finally stopped, police said.
Officers then ordered him out of his vehicle, but officers said he resisted arrest and threatened them. Officers at the scene used a Taser to subdue Lagmay before they were able to arrest him.
Lagmay was being held in in lieu of $147,000 bail, officials said yesterday.
