A 41-year-old Honolulu man was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder in the first degree early Monday morning after he allegedly stabbed three men at a Kalama Valley home Sunday night.

Matthew Smith was arrested by Honolulu police at 8801 Kalanianaole Highway and remained in custody pending investigation.

At about 11:30 p.m. Sunday night, Smith allegedly used “a dangerous instrument and assaulted the homeowner and two roommates” in the 700 block of Ipuai Street in Kalama Valley.

Smith was renting a room in the home from the homeowner, who is 74 years old. The other two men are 37 and 46 years old.

Emergency Medical Services technicians administered “advanced life saving treatment” to the three men before they were taken to a hospital in serious condition.
