Police responded to reports of gunfire from a home on Kawaihau Road near Kapahi Park at about 8:30 p.m. Thursday night and closed Kawaihau Road at Kaapuni Road, police said..
The road remained closed until about 12:30 a.m. today after the man surrendered to crisis negotiators at 12:06 a.m.
The suspect, Kevin Christian, remains in custody in lieu of $100,000 bail for first degree reckless endangering, police said.
No one else was home at the time and no injuries were reported.
