Two police officers were fatally shot, and several houses caught on fire while law enforcement officials dealt with an incident that turned violent in Hawaii.

A man with a firearm approached and shot at officers who were responding to an assault call in Waikiki around the intersection of Poni Moi Road and Hibiscus Drive on Sunday, according to the Honolulu Star Advertiser. The suspect was reportedly being served an eviction notice when he stabbed his landlord, whose condition was not immediately clear.

Police then shut down the surrounding areas, including Kalakaua Avenue and Paki Avenue near Kapiolani Park and Diamond Head Road near Hibiscus Place.

Local reports indicated that two officers were confirmed dead after being taken to a nearby hospital, while a third is suffering from a gunshot wound.

Thin Blue Line Prayers up. Sounds like there will be a call for stricter gun control on the islands.

Staged event with two cops dead and a couple of more people wounded?

Where was BHO before all this happened?

I wonder if the perp claimed to be an heir to the Hawaiian monarchy, and it was a Greta "How dare you!" moment?

Staged in the sense that this guy may have known he was getting booted, and put things in place before hand.

“Homes set ablaze”, landlord stabbed, cops shot. Seems more planned than spontaneous, is all.

Yes, something like that. Maybe he just figured “today’s THE DAY” and boom.

Not a false flag staged thing. I used the wrong wording.

Fake news. Everybody knows Hawaii has strict gun laws and everybody obeys them.

Oh my. Read the article and noticed just how awful the article is.
“Suspect is dead” but they dont know his condition.
There is no such thing as journalism in our world today.
