Police investigate Saturday morning at the scene of a fatal shooting near the corner of Seaside and Kuhio avenues in Waikiki.
The Medical Examiner’s office has identified the man killed in an early-morning shooting outside a Waikiki club on Saturday as 22-year-old Maleko Remlinger of Kaneohe.
Remlinger and two other men were shot as they were standing amid a crowd of about 20 people outside Club Alley Cat around 5:45 a.m.
Police located and arrested suspect Jordan A. Smith, 18, at a Young Street apartment building on Sunday.
Remlinger died of multiple gunshot wounds, the Medical Examiner determined. His death has been classified as a homicide.
The shooting occurred on private property in an area people frequent after nearby bars close, police said.
A Honolulu Police Department spokesperson said that officers had previously responded to noise, drinking and other nuisance complaints and patrols in the area were increased “a couple of months ago.”
Police will contact the property manager and owner to work on long-time solutions, the spokesperson said.
