Awareness in Oahu
AWARENESS: Reposting from Amber Rose "Not sure if a potential crime was involved or if there was just a lost kid, but about 8:45pm tonight at the intersection of Geiger and Kapolei Pkwy, I was at the light going south on Kapolei Pkwy. I noticed a man and a kid wearing a red Keoneula Elementary shirt slowly crossing the crosswalk going west, and the light was on a no cross. It grabbed my attention because it was really dark and you couldn't really see them and the kid was walking with a stumble, trailing behind the man and when the man kept trying to pull at him to walk, the boy kept pulling away. It almost looked like the kid was in trouble from a parent and was being stubborn not wanting to walk with him. Then they finally got to the sidewalk corner and the man almost looked like he was disciplining him, or it could've been that the boy was lost and this guy was helping him cross and asking him questions when they crossed. I planned on pulling over when the light turned green, but before the light turned green, someone in a truck pulled a u-turn and pulled to the curb and a woman hopped out and started asking questions and got her phone out I'm guessing to call 911 or maybe potentially the kid's parents if that guy wasn't a parent. My husband later drove by the same area and saw a bunch of cops, so hopefully it wasn't a kidnapping situation. But if you were in that truck who pulled over, Mahalo nui for your concern and kokua! The whole situation was so fishy (hard to tell just how sus it was from this description), but I'm glad someone else noticed it too. It really was something I felt deep in my gut that something was off. Would love to know if anyone knows what happened and that the kid is ok!"
