UPDATE: 1:55 p.m.

A Waipahu man wanted in connection with the fatal shooting of his estranged wife this morning in a parking garage at Pearlridge Center was found dead in Waipahu this afternoon, police said.

Family members identified the woman who was killed at about 10 a.m. as Theresa Cachuela of Kamakana Street in Waipahu, the owner of House of Glam Hawaii LLC. They told the Honolulu Star-Advertiser that police were looking for her estranged husband of more than a decade, Jason Cachuela.

After an island-wide search, Jason Cachuela was found dead in Waipahu, police announced at 1:41 p.m.

According to a petition for a temporary restraining order that was granted Wednesday, Theresa Cachuela warned that her estranged husband owned “guns” and that on Dec. 6 he “continued to make threats of killing himself in front of me and my children were present.”

“He then took me alone to Waikiki and held a knife to his neck traumatizing me and scaring me,”she wrote. “The next morning he showed up to my house early in the morning to apologize. I tried to help him and talk to him but he kept threatening to kill himself again.”

The fatal shooting led to the lockdown of nearby Pali Momi Medical Center at 10:10 a.m.

Officials said that at about 12:46 p.m. the lockdown at the medical center and all nearby Hawaii Pacific Health facilities was lifted.

“The Honolulu Police Department has informed us that there is no active threat in the area and Pali Momi’s security team has issued an all-clear. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused,” Gloria Brooks, chief operating officer of the Pali Momi Medical Center, said in a statement.
