Hawai’i – The Honolulu Police Department (HPD) has issued a public warning as officers continue to search for a man suspected of felony abuse and escape.
Police on Tuesday released a photograph and a brief description of the suspect on social media, urging the public to remain vigilant.
Authorities are seeking Tiofilusi Tongamoa, 37, who police say should be considered armed and dangerous.
According to a CrimeStoppers bulletin today, Tongamoa allegedly assaulted his wife in their Aiea home in front of their children, who are all under 14 years old.
He is described as standing 6 feet 1 inch tall, weighing approximately 320 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes.
Police did not immediately release further details surrounding the alleged offences but advised members of the public not to approach the suspect if sighted.
Anyone with information regarding Tongamoa’s whereabouts is urged to contact the Honolulu Police Department or call 911 immediately.
HPD says the investigation remains ongoing.
