Police reports identify Glendon Young, 42, as the man arrested Saturday after allegedly shooting at police officers in Kahaluu.
The shotgun round missed the three officers but left a police car with several holes on the left passenger side. There were no injuries.
Young — who has a history of violent crimes — was arrested on suspicion of three counts of first-degree attempted murder, carrying a loaded firearm and resisting arrest. He also faces two drug charges and two charges as a felon possessing a firearm.
The incident occurred sometime between 3:50 and 4 p.m. and caused police to temporarily close Kamehameha Highway between Hunaahi and Hunalepo streets.
Young has a criminal record dating back to 1992. In 2014 he was sentenced to four additional years of probation after being charged with escape. He was serving a sentence for robbery and possession of a firearm. In 1995, in a robbery case, he was sentenced to 20 years’ confinement with a four-year mandatory minimum sentence.
