Across the harbor at the naval shipyard, a sailor on Wednesday shot three civilians working for the shipyard on the base, killing two including a Filipino-American, before taking his own life. The wounded victim was hospitalized in stable condition.
Navy officials said they didn’t know the motive for the shooting. It wasn’t known if the sailor and victims knew each other. College roommate Daniel Vu described Kapoi as a “family guy” who was soft-spoken and extremely hardworking, known for waking up at 3 a.m. to work at the fishing docks to pay for tuition. He told news website Honolulu Civil Beat that Kapoi graduated from the University of San Francisco in 2011 and was proud of his Native Hawaiian and Filipino heritage.
“Workers were in lockdown on base for hours yesterday; some were witnesses, others heard the gun shots, others locked down into the closest building they could find but most were locked in their offices not knowing was happening. Many emotions were felt yesterday but most were of fear, terror, sadness and grief,” it said.
