Police investigated an apparent double shooting on Kukulu Street today.
The Honolulu Medical Examiner’s Office was awaiting positive identification today of two people who died New Year’s Day in a murder-suicide shooting in Kapolei.
Police said a 32-year-old man killed a 56-year-old woman with “a dangerous instrument” before using the same instrument on himself about 2:30 p.m. Friday.
Paramedics responding to an emergency call at the Kukulu Street residence found the woman dead of an apparent gunshot wound, and the man suffering from a single gunshot wound, an Emergency Medical Services report said.
Police said the man was taken to a hospital where he died. The shooting may have occurred during a New Year’s party at the residence, police said.
Detectives remained at the scene for several hours Friday evening to investigate.

Is this the first homocide of the year for O’ahu?
How can you get any “firster” when it happens on the first day of the year??
when it happens at midnight?
Atomic clock?
cholo. I turn into a pumpkin after midnight.
mmmm. cholo likes pumpkins.
I’m a underage pumpkin. Not quite ripe, yet.
Likely a murder-suicide. So sad..God be with their souls.
I though you didn’t go to heaven if you commit suicide Allie.
Roman Catholics are fairly unforgiving in that aspect. The reasoning is it is “self murder” and once done you can’t repent the murder and ask forgiveness. Many other Christians don’t believe it is that cut and dried.
All my friends are all down below. Not in heaven.
The developer really should have tried to smash more houses together in that neighborhood. Good job on building that school in a timely manner too (Probably something Planning and Permitting should have made the developer accomplish prior to building any residential structures, but noooooo).
That’s what affordable housing looks like when Hawaiian Homelands is in charge.
The pics of homes there are nice.
Even nicer if you owned all of them homes, as well.
Bunch of silly postings…LOL.
I think yours was the best of the lot!
Condolences to the ohana of the victims.
They may have been family. It looks like the son who is mentally ill shot his mother after the party and then killed himself. I wonder what the official story will be.
So what is the map supposed to show ? The general area of the incident ?
One would think that these web guys doing the SA site could embed better maps with at least an arrow pointing to the spot if not interactive where the reader can make things big enough to actually read the streets. Let alone make it interactive. But I guess they are scrambling to just make the site workable. Just my two cents worth of unlimited wisdom.
No need a map. Only increases the download time of the Flash program. Long scripted timeout. No pictures is fine with me on SA. c om.
The house is gonna be haunted.
Along with the rest of this poor world.
Why be filty poor when you can be flity rich.
No, people who have died are not going to do any harm to the living, only the living do harm to the living.
well put
allies going to learn about life from this old man this year, me. Stay tuned, allie, dear.
People who die cause a tremendous amount of grief . Even a beloved pet will have the same results. Just ask Hospice Hawaii.
Looks like either the Police don’t know much about what happened or the reporting is bad, or more likely, both.
Detective needs to investigate
Well, I’ll bet THAT broke up the party!
No, meet up again at the funeral for another celebration of life afterwards.
Love triangle affairs are never a good thing, but we must learn to just walk walk, and forgive. There is always a tomorrow. And morning will come…
I don’t see any swimming pools in that area. Must be a poor man’s dump? My puppies need a place to swim.
Isn’t it easier to say or write “Gun”, rather than “Dangerous Instrument”? Or are badly played trombones now capable of firing bullets?
I didn’t understand the use of “dangerous instrument” either, it was evident they were shot.
Dangerous instrument, word, uses up to much ink and paper. Gun, word, is only three words.
Bang Stick in a dangerous instrument used to kill fish but fires a gun cartridge.
