A Hawaii Vacation was cut short for a 34-year-old visitor from California. She was visiting  Oahu’s Northshore and was shot while driving on Kamehameha Highway at Kamananui Road close to the Dole Plantation just before 6 am.

The tourist was driving a rental car and was taken to Wahiawa General Hospital but stable. She was later on released from the hospital and remained in a state of shock.The woman was with her husband, who was uninjured in the shooting

With the help of the Hawaii Visitors Aloha Society of Hawaii, the couple was put on a flight back to California, cutting their vacation short.

The shooter appeared to have killed himself. Police did not release any details on the incident.

Not all the info on this story is out, as to how and what started this.

Just last week Susan Ballard, Chief of the Honolulu Police Department said Hawaii is safe for visitors.
