Charges filed against suspect in Kalihi officer-involved shooting

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) – Prosecutors have dismissed an attempted murder charge against the suspect arrested for a officer-involved shooting on Kuhio Park Terrace.

Instead, they added additional charges against 47-year-old Blane Apostadiro, including first-degree terroristic threatening, reckless endangerment and possession of a firearm.

This all ties back to an incident early Sunday morning when Honolulu police located a stolen vehicle on Kuhio Park Terrace.

Police said Apostadiro allegedly shot at two officers there as he tried to run away.

Officers returned fire and the suspect was seriously injured.

Apostadiro’s bail has been set at $1 million.
