Police hold man in alleged threat with machete

A 26-year-old man, upset over an argument with two relatives, threatened them with an assortment of weapons early today in Waianae, police said.

After arguing with the two men, 32 and 34, on Orange Street near Hana Street about 12:40 a.m., the man walked away, but came back with a hunting knife, a pry bar, and a machete. He threatened to kill the other men, but ran away when they said they would call police.

Officers found the man and arrested him on suspicion of two counts of first-degree terroristic threatening. The arrested man made a cross-complaint, and police arrested the 32-year-old man on suspicion of terroristic threatening and assault.
