Authorities have charged a Schofield Barracks soldier with assault and other offenses in connection with a Friday night pellet-gun shooting spree that injured a woman in Mililani, and endangered people and damaged a business in Wahiawa.
Daniel W. Womack, 21, was charged with first-degree assault, reckless endangering and criminal property damage.
Police released a second person without charges, the prosecutor's office said.
According to a police affidavit, the second suspect told an arresting officer, "We just bought those guns from Wal-Mart." But Womack denied that he was at Wal-Mart, and said they had just come "from Whitmore," the affidavit said.
Witnesses told police that on Friday night, they saw a dark-colored car driving in Mililani and Wahiawa with two men inside. In the first incident, a woman reported at 8:15 p.m. that she was shot, possibly by a pellet or BB gun, behind the City Mill store in Mililani Town Center, according to a police affidavit. The assailants drove away on Meheula Parkway.
The woman was taken to a hospital. An update on her condition was not available.
The car was described as a dark-colored sedan with a rear spoiler.
About 8:30 p.m., someone called police to report that a car matching that description was involved in a pellet-gun shooting at California Avenue and Mango Street in Wahiawa.
The caller said four males were at that intersection when a dark-colored car drove past on Mango Street and made a U-turn, the affidavit said. On the second pass, someone in the car fired five shots from a pellet gun at the group. A pellet hit one of the males and three hit a window at 564 California Ave., the affidavit said.
At 8:58 p.m., a man reported to police that he had been shot in the arm by a pellet fired by men in a dark-colored car on Whitmore Avenue. He was not hospitalized.
Police arrested Womack and his passenger about 9 p.m. on Mango Street near Kilani Avenue.
Womack is to be arraigned tomorrow at 1:30 p.m.
