New proposal would ban hotel guests in Hawaii to bring firearms or ammunition into rooms
HONOLULU (KHON2) - There are no state laws making it illegal for hotel guests to have guns and ammunition in their rooms, says state Representative Tom Brower (D, Waikiki and Ala Moana).
He is trying to change that.
A bill he introduced Friday in the state legislature would prohibit hotel guests from having firearms and ammunition in their rooms. Brower says he got the idea from watching a report on KHON2 in May 2018.
"I was watching KHON, and there was a story," he explained, "this man had a number of fire arms and a large number of ammunition!"
Last May, Honolulu Police discovered multiple guns, 18 knives, and more than 800 rounds of ammunition in a Waikiki hotel room.
