Honolulu police investigate two attacks near Hula's gay bar
Honolulu police detectives investigating the assault on Dr. Tim Noreuil. Noreuil suffered 30 fractures to the right side of his face after he was hit from behind with an unidentified object while walking home from Hula's. Three men walked by him and made eye contact before one of them doubled back and hit him. Detectives are trying to determine if there is a connection between that attack and the beating of a woman on her way to the same club just five days later. Near Hula's, Waikiki's popular gay nightclub, a man asked if she is a lesbian. When she said yes, the man hit her. "Whether it is one ethnic group or another or one persuasion or another, no one deserves to be beaten up," said Det. Larry Lawson said. We couldn't agree more.
