HONOLULU — A federal agent charged with killing a man inside a McDonald’s restaurant in Waikiki was in Hawaii to help with security at this week’s Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit, officials said Monday.

Killing of an armed man.. given 'Paid leave' !!
"The agent has been put on paid administrative leave."
Well looks like they have some stable characters handling security at Apec in Hawaii. Do people usually get bail for murder? $250'000 also seems strange.. any lawyers out there have a take on this story?
Sen. Daniel Inouye, D-Hawaii, said his thoughts and prayers were with Elderts’ family.
“I am confident that the Honolulu Police Department will handle this matter properly to ensure that justice is served, and that our community will be respectful and considerate of both the Elderts family and the national and international spotlight which is upon our beloved Hawaii this week,” Inouye said in a statement.
