Authorities said the suspect, a 69-year-old man, has likely died, and there is no ongoing manhunt to track him down, according to Hawaii News Now.

The incident allegedly began because of an eviction dispute between the suspect and his landlord.

The Honolulu Police Department did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.
