Police taser knife-threatening suspect in Wahiawa

Advertiser Staff

Police used a taser early today to subdue and arrest a 21-year-old man in Wahiawa who allegedly threatened officers with a knife.

The man was arrested at 225 Ohai Street at 12:50 a.m. for first-degree terroristic threatening and disorderly conduct. Charges are pending.

Police responded to Ohai Street at 12:16 a.m. to investigate reports of a street fight involving a large group of males and saw the suspect punching the glass louvers of his own apartment and shouting in a disorderly manner. As officers approached, the suspect allegedly pulled out a large knife and threatened to kill them.
