Hawaii County Mayor Harry Kim “is feeling much better” but continues to undergo tests and procedures at The Queen’s Medical Center following chest pains Thursday, county officials said today.
There is still no diagnosis of what caused Kim’s chest pains as he exercised in his Hilo home around 4 a.m., officials said. Kim, 78, suffered three previous heart attacks and underwent quadruple bypass surgery in 2008.
He continues to undergo unspecified tests and procedures at Queen’s, but “Harry’s feeling much better today after the procedures done Thursday,” said Wil Okabe, Hawaii County’s managing director, who is serving as acting mayor.
Man accused of assaulting woman while serving papers
A 78-year-old Hilo man is accused of sexually assaulting a woman while serving an eviction notice Wednesday.
According to Hawaii island police, Robert Estacion, a self-employed civil process server, was serving the notice at the woman’s residence in Waimea when he entered the dwelling and assaulted the woman.
Estacion was charged Friday with two counts of first-degree sexual assault and one count of fourth-degree sexual assault. He is being held in lieu of $20,500 bail.
