The Hawaiʻi Police Department has released body worn camera (BWC) video recorded during the officer-involved shooting that occurred on Friday, February 3, on Kumukoa Street in Hilo.

“Unfortunately, none of the BWCs captured the actual shooting,” reported Chief Benjamin Moszkowicz in a statement that accompanied the video release. “Whether this is due to an equipment malfunction, or simply because officers did not activate their cameras in time, is part of our administrative investigation.”

Police shot 32-year-old Aina Kealoha Bill Cachero in the upper shoulder, after officers – responding to a report of an active vehicle theft from a residence – say the suspect ignored their commands and “was observed reaching into his waistband area, pulling out a dark-colored pistol, and turning his body towards the officers.”

Cachero was arrested and transported via ambulance to the Hilo Medical Center, where he was treated and released. He was alter charged with an array of offenses, including second-degree robbery and first-degree theft.
