Neighbors Who See Stabbing Kick Ass
Smoking Pot with the Honolulu Police

It's hard to blame Honolulu police officers Shayne Souza and Kevin Fujioka. They're in Vegas for a police softball tourney. And anyone who's played softball knows about the long delays between games at these things. So they thought to themselves, "Hmm, perhaps we shall repair to our van for some trusty herb?" After all, they're Honolulu cops. They're supposed to be laid back.

That's when Vegas PD approached. The van was parked illegally and the responding officer only intended to ask the cops to repark. Unfortunately, this is when our heroes panicked and drove away. Vegas police followed; Souza and Fujioka jumped from the van, hoping to escape on foot. But apparently they didn't make the Honolulu PD softball team on he basis of their speed. Both were caught, and Souza -- a SWAT team veteran -- had to be pepper sprayed to be subdued.
They were charged with possession of narcotics, resisting arrest, obstructing a police officer, and DUI narcotics. Though a Honolulu police spokesman praised both officers for their work on the job, he added that they'll likely be fired.
