Pronouncing Keaau like that hurts my soul
27th in Kea'au? That doesn't look like HPP. Orchidland has 30's to 40.
Hawaiian Acres is single numbers and letters.
Could be Fern Acres.
Awful that this happened. It's pretty crazy here sometimes. Some areas more than others.
Did she just say “cow, Hawaii” and not Kaui, Hawaii
I was stationed at Schofield and remember seeing HPD officers using their personal cars with a blue a blue light on top. A lot would Camaros, Mustangs, Chargers. There was no out running them.
Thats my uncle i am 12. 😭😭😭
Often times we see these videos with officers with long guns walking up to homes. No long guns here…curious.
Another person of color shot and kill by the police
One thing we learn is never chase a man on his own ground. – vietnam vet.
What I hate to see is the fact that the police is allowed to shot us but they have a issue being shot, fair is what fair does and your not acting fair we should be able to stop you should we need to period ! Your not a god your not a law your a peace officer not not a murder officer
Kea'au. Kay-yuh-ow
That’s funny Hawaii cops are all corrupt they where probably trying to find him pot plants
Voice overs always state the obvious. Clowns.
Just another police murder with edited footage.
Hard to hit the thumbs up because I wonder if they're taking out the few survivors they took out with the on purpose fires
cops 💩 their pants as usual…
savages
FAFO
Great job police officers ❤
Nice Police Work !!!!
After what happened during the fire on Hawaii I wouldn’t trust those corrupt police either.
Of course, you guys put the cops on leave. What happened to the guy who shot at them?
Bodycams need image stabilization
