A 62-year-old Naʻalehu man died following a single vehicle collision on Thursday (August 27) near the intersection of Aloha Boulevard and Highway 11 in Hawaiian Ocean View Estates. 

The 62-year-old male has been positively identified as Kevin Ceasar.

An autopsy has been ordered to determine the exact cause of death.

The Area II Traffic Enforcement Unit has initiated a Coroner’s Inquest investigation and is asking for anyone who may have witnessed the accident to contact Officer Jason Foxworthy at 326-4646, ext. 229 or email at jason.foxworthy@hawaiicounty.gov.
