Officer staffing shortages at the Honolulu Police Department are putting the public and officers at risk, police union leaders said Thursday.

“We are here today to sound the alarm to the residents and businesses we protect that they are being deceived by the leadership of the Honolulu Police Department into thinking they are receiving police protection,” said SHOPO President Robert Cavaco, in a news conference.

“This dangerous understaffing is an open secret within the department,” he added, calling the shortages a “dire public health crisis.”

Cavaco called on HPD to authorize overtime and bring staffing to 100%.

Hawaii News Now is seeking comment to SHOPO’s concerns from HPD.
