Police investigate possible arson in Waikiki

Oct 07, 2026

Honolulu police have opened an arson investigation after a fire on a Waikiki street, with no injuries and no one in custody so far.

  • Officers and fire crews responded to a fire on Lewers Street in Waikiki on the evening of February 10.
  • The flames stayed on the outside of the building and were put out quickly.
  • No one was hurt, and the building itself appears to have been spared serious damage.
  • Police are treating it as second-degree arson, meaning they believe the fire was set on purpose.

Outlook: The investigation stays open with no arrests yet, so police will likely seek witnesses and security footage from the busy tourist area.
