St. Andrew’s Schools went into lockdown Monday morning after a homeless man with a sharp object climbed over a fence onto its property as he ran from police, officials said.
The all-clear was sounded at 9:10 a.m. after state sheriffs searched the campus and found no sign of him, according to a state Department of Public Safety news release.
The incident began at 7:45 a.m. when state sheriffs from the Capitol patrol responded to a call at the Queen Liliuokalani Building about a homeless man creating a disturbance.
The sheriffs found the man sleeping on the building’s air-conditioning system, tucked under an overhang at the back of the building. They ordered him down, and he showed what appeared to be a sharp object and took off toward the school, according to the release.
Pearl City man ID’d as crash victim
The Honolulu Medical Examiner’s Office has identified a 72-year-old man who died in a motorcycle crash in Kailua as Jaime A. Garcia of Pearl City.
A determination of the cause of death is pending an autopsy report.
Police said Garcia was traveling Kaneohe-bound on Kalanianaole Highway on a motorcycle when he lost control near Ulupii Street at about 11:35 a.m. Friday. He was thrown onto the roadway from his bike. Police said another motorcycle traveling in the same lane struck him.
Emergency Medical Services treated and transported Garcia in critical condition to a hospital where he died.
Neither speed nor alcohol was a factor in the crash.
