Murder arrest after man calls Hawaii Island police about shooting

Sep 21, 2026

A man on Hawaii Island is under arrest for second-degree murder after he called police himself to report he had been attacked and had shot someone.

  • Police identified the caller as 49-year-old Bryant Scott Guevara.
  • Officers found a 41-year-old man with multiple gunshot wounds on Makuu Drive Saturday night.
  • The victim died at the scene.
  • Guevara was still there when police arrived and was taken into custody.

Outlook: Guevara faces a second-degree murder charge, and his claim of being attacked first will likely be central as the case moves forward.
