Honolulu police officers shot a man who refused to come out of a Waikiki hotel room and had fired several rounds, forcing the evacuation of about 90 tourists and international students.

Management at the Ohia Waikiki Studio Suites called police asking for help escorting a man from the property, Honolulu Police Chief said. The man ignored negotiators' attempts to contact him and fired at least eight rounds, including one that hit a police vehicle parked on the street below.
