Open Records Summary :

Maui PD were called to a residence for a mental health call, found a man holding a dull round knife sharpener. He was shot dead by police. The victim’s mother stated he was well known to police from prior mental health calls and was not a threat to police. It is questionable whether a dull knife sharpening rod presents a dangerous weapon to heavily armed police.
