The officer was wearing his uniform at the time of the assault on New Year’s Day in 2016.

HPD Chief Joe Logan said the department has made changes to its communication strategy after criticism from city leadership over the handling of a previous incident.

The defendants were caught on tape talking about how to arrange the retirement deal without asking the City Council’s permission.

HPD has started a $23,000 collaboration with Kauai comedian Zavier Cummings to produce recruitment videos.

Attorneys say their client was mistaken by police for a suspect who had already been shot nearby.

Duane Kaaialii Jr. filed a lawsuit after surveillance video showed the suspect had leg tattoos, which he does not.

A 25-year-old man was also struck by a police vehicle and taken to a hospital, according to officials.

Advocates say Theresa Cachuela’s killing shows limits of protective orders.

Officers were trying to apprehend the suspect, Sidney Tafokitau, when he fired multiple times at their unmarked vehicle, officials said.

Financial details have not been released because the City Council must finalize the deal.
