Honolulu police officer, 41, arrested for alleged sex assault
Police arrested last week a 41-year-old Honolulu police officer on six counts of sexual assault, but have not charged him as of Thursday.
The officer was arrested 6:10 p.m. May 8 on suspicion of four counts of first-degree sexual assault and two counts of third-degree sexual assault. Police released him from custody about one hour after his arrest.
The Honolulu Police Department has restricted the police powers of the officer, who has eight years of service, said spokeswoman Michelle Yu.
The officer, a Mililani resident, is assigned to District 7, which covers East Honolulu.
Police are continuing their investigation into the allegations, Yu said.
