On July 18, 2024, at about 2:05 A.M, a fatal motor vehicle collision involving a motorist and a pedestrian occurred on Kamehameha Highway, in the Kaneohe area.

It was reported to the Honolulu Police Department, Traffic Division, Vehicular Homicide Section, that a 75-year-old male motorist was traveling northbound on Kamehameha Highway when he struck a 32-year-old female pedestrian who was walking partially in the roadway. As the 32-year-old female lay in the roadway, she was subsequently struck by an unknown vehicle who left the area without rending aid or providing information.

As a result of the collision, the 32-year-old female succumbed to her injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.

The 75-year-old male motorist remained at the scene and was not injured as a result of this collision.
