A twenty-five-year-old man lost his life in a tragic shootout on Sunday in Hawaii. The place has become the epicenter of undue vigilante justice with the presence of a gang called the ‘WolfPak’. This group enforces its rules utilizing fear and fists, which have resulted in many violent scuffles. They have made many enemies over the years but did not expect their reign of terror to take the life of one of their own.
Makani Alexander was the son of famous Hawaii enforcer Kala Alexander, who founded the WolfPak. The young man was out with friends in Haleiwa on Sunday night when a bullet was fired at him. What ensued was chaos and shrieks of agonizing pain as Makani’s friends scrambled for help.
