A man is dead and a suspect is in custody after a morning stabbing in Honolulu, grim news for the Oahu neighborhood where it happened.

  • A 42-year-old man was arrested for second-degree murder after a stabbing on Ke'eaumoku Street early one morning.
  • The victim, a man in his 50s or 60s, was rushed to the hospital in critical condition and later died.
