Suspect arrested in Ala Moana Center murder

By Associated Press

HONOLULU (AP) — Police have arrested a 26-year-old suspect in the murder of a Kapahulu man two weeks ago. The Honolulu Star-Advertiser says the suspect was brought Thursday to the main police station. Detectives and prosecutors were preparing charging documents Thursday night. The man is a suspect in the fatal stabbing of 23-year-old Brent Keola "Ola" Kanae at Ala Moana Center. Kanae was found unconscious and bleeding with three stab wounds to his chest in an open stairwell behind California Pizza Kitchen on Oct. 3. He was a line cook at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.
