A 38-year-old Oahu Community Corrections Center escapee was scheduled to make his initial District Court appearance this morning on charges that he allegedly assaulted a man and his ex-girlfriend in Kapolei with an accomplice while on the lam.
Leslie Dabis, 38, was charged with second-degree assault, second-degree escape, and second- and third-degree criminal property damage Sunday. His bail was set at $400,000.
Dabis was arrested Friday night in Kalihi after he and another man entered a Kapolei residence about 8:30 a.m., assaulted a man and woman with a dangerous instrument and forcibly took the woman, police said.
The male victim was taken to a hospital with serious injuries. Police said the female victim was Dabis’ ex-girlfriend.
Dabis had escaped from OCCC on Jan. 14.
