The Honolulu Police Commission says it is looking for a chief with a "level head and compassionate heart."

The number of homicides and car thefts have spiked on Hawaii's most populous island, according to HPD data.

The Honolulu Police Commission hopes to announce the city's next police chief by early June.

A contested case hearing will be held to determine if two HPD officers accused of causing a serious crash will get a city-funded legal defense.

Marquis Green was found guilty by a jury after a trial that dragged on for nearly a decade.

The charter amendments need support from six of nine City Council members to be added to the November ballot.

HPD data shows that domestic violence-related complaints have historically made up a notable portion of criminal allegations against officers.

The City Council passed a resolution requesting that HPD inform residents after doing warrantless searches when they're away.

The latest ruling brings the city's costs to about $127,000 in the eight-year-old case.  

The Honolulu prosecutor's office also has opened an independent investigation into the crash.
