Manhunt underway in popular tourist destination after sulfuric acid attack critically burns pedestrian
Authorities in Hawaii are searching for a suspect who allegedly threw acid into a man's face Friday night in Honolulu, leaving him in critical condition. According to the Honolulu Police Department (HPD), officers responded to an assault complaint shortly after 10 p.m. in the Chinatown area. Witnesses told officers a 30-year-old man was crossing the street when an unidentified suspect approached and threw an unknown liquid into his face. The Honolulu Fire Department later identified the liquid as sulfuric acid, a highly corrosive chemical that causes severe burns to skin, eyes and internal tissue. Emergency responders took the victim to the hospital, where he remains in critical condition, an HPD spokesperson told Fox News Digital. Due to the severity of his injuries, HPD detectives were unable to interview him to gather additional information. "The preliminary investigation indicates that the victim did not know the suspect," the spokesperson said. "Right now, detectives are canvassing the scene to recover any surveillance video and locate any additional witnesses." HPD described the case as a first-degree assault, a serious felony in Hawaii. Detectives have not determined a motive, and it is unclear whether the attack qualifies as a hate crime. The suspect is described as a 6-foot man last seen wearing a blue fitted shirt and a do-rag with a camera around his neck and carrying a red bottle. The investigation is ongoing, police said. Honolulu Fire Department officials did not immediately respond to inquiries from Fox News Digital.

Langley RCMP seize $45,000 cash mailed from Nunavut, linked to July assault involving two Edmonton men
A package of $44,990 cash mailed from Cambridge Bay, Nunavut to Langley, B.C. may have provided a link in the brutal beating incident involving two Edmonton men that sent two men to hospital last month. Around 4 a.m. on July 8, Cambridge Bay RCMP responded to a report that two men had been assaulted and taken for medical treatment. 'Preliminary investigation indicated that two male suspects, known to the victims, assaulted them with a weapon in a residence on Tuktu Street. Both victims sustained serious injuries and were flown south (to Edmonton) for further treatment,' said Sgt. George Henrie of the RCMP. According to a relative, the two Cambridge Bay residents had been confined, tied to a chair, and beaten with tools and tortured with what sounded like waterboarding. 'They covered their faces with a towel and started pouring boiling water on them,' the woman said. 'They hit them with shovels and hammers all over their body.' The two had hobbled to a relative's home two doors down, and were taken for medical treatment. On July 10, four suspects were identified at the airport where they were waiting for a flight out of Cambridge Bay. They were reportedly recognized by locals, who called RCMP. With 1,760 residents, Cambridge Bay is the largest of two hamlets on Victoria Island. Package seized According to a Thursday news release, after continuing their investigation into the July 8 assault RCMP discovered a package had been mailed from Cambridge Bay to Langley, B.C. through Canada Post, and that the package was linked to the assault. They enlisted Langley RCMP, who used a search warrant on July 18 to seize the package from Canada Post as proceeds of crime. With the assistance of the Iqaluit RCMP's General Investigative Section, four men — including two from Edmonton — have been charged in connection with the assault. Police charged Ly Gabriel Galido, 22, of Edmonton, Ayaan Kamran Warsi, 19, of Edmonton, and Hadi Alhashesh, 19, of Chilliwack B.C., with two counts of aggravated assault, possession of a firearm without a licence, two counts of forcible confinement, two counts of pointing a firearm, trafficking a controlled substance, possession of property obtained by crime, and robbery with a firearm. Police also charged Joshua MacPherson, 19, of Cambridge Bay with two counts of assault.
