Paul Hodges Jr.
The 45-year-old man wanted for allegedly ramming his girlfriend’s car and firing gunshots at her near Makapuu has surrendered, according to a social media post from the Honolulu Police Department.
Police said the suspect, Paul Halland Hodges Jr., turned himself in at the Kapolei Police Department this afternoon and was arrested on suspicion of attempted first-degree murder and first-degree damage to property. HPD officials said they are filing charges with the city Department of Attorney.
Police said a 33-year-old woman told Honolulu police at 6 a.m. Thursday that her boyfriend followed her, rammed the white Jeep she was riding in and fired multiple shots at her car.
The woman drove her Jeep to the Kailua police station to report the shooting. Police said she was taken to hospital in serious condition.
After the shooting, HPD said officers were looking for an “armed and dangerous suspect.”
According to court records, on March 6, the woman filed a six-month temporary restraining order against Hodges, who has more than 40 tickets and arrests.
The woman wrote in her petition that she and Hodges had been dating and living together for four months when he allegedly began grabbing, punching, punching and choking her in February.
“He isolated me in my room when he was angry or felt like I wasn’t talking to him, he would get in my face. If I said something he didn’t want to hear, he would hit me or throw something at me,” she wrote. . “If I told him to stop and he felt I was loud, he would choke me and keep my mouth shut. I have to ask to use a car we own together.”
The woman alleged that Hodges, who was convicted of robbery in 2005, punched her in the chest when he thought she was lying.
