Flags at half-staff for slain officer

The Maui News

The American and Hawaii flags will be flown at half-staff today to honor Hawaii island police officer Bronson Kaliloa, who was shot and killed in the line of duty Tuesday.

“Our entire state mourns the loss of officer Kaliloa, a man who dedicated his life to his family and his community,” said Gov. David Ige. “He sacrificed all to protect the community he loved. Dawn and I send our deepest condolences to his ohana.”

The governor also has ordered that flags be lowered on the day of Kaliloa’s memorial service, which has yet to be finalized.
