It was reported to the Honolulu Police Department, Traffic Division, Vehicular Homicide Section, that a 61-year-old male motorist was traveling westbound on Farrington Highway and attempted to turn left into Laaloa Street, against an illuminated red arrow signal and into the path of a 34-year-old female motorist who was traveling eastbound on Farrington Highway.

As a result of the collision, the 61-year-old male motorist was transported, via Emergency Medical Service, to an area hospital in critical condition where he later succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased.

As a result of the collision, the 34-year-old adult female motorist was transported, via Emergency Medical Service, to an area hospital in serious condition.
