Police remain on the scene on 29th Avenue as the Area I Crime Reduction Unit obtains additional warrants to search the residence and recover a vehicle believed to have been used in the commission of some of the offenses. A second vehicle Lolohea was operating has been recovered and is being held pending a search warrant.

Both Lolohea and Miyasato remain in custody as the investigation continues.
