Police in Hawaii release man who killed neighbor who fatally shot 3 people at gathering

A man who was arrested on suspicion of murder after shooting and killing a neighbor who opened fire at a Hawaii gathering was released from custody and it wasn't yet clear whether there will be any criminal charges, police said Tuesday.

Three people were killed and two others injured in a shooting at a home stemming from a dispute between neighbors on Saturday night in Waianae, a west Oahu community. The shooter was also fatally shot by a resident, who was arrested on a second-degree murder charge, police said.

Honolulu police said the 42-year-old man was released pending investigation on Sunday night. The Honolulu prosecuting attorney's office will ultimately decide if there are any charges, Police Chief Joe Logan said Tuesday.

“In Hawaii, we are a non ‘stand your ground’ state,” he said. “Even if you have a license to carry, if you're an individual that discharges a firearm that is involved in injuring another person, ... you're going to be arrested.”
