On February 28, 2024, the Honolulu Fire Department (HFD) received a 911 call at 7:24
a.m. for a building fire at 1662 Olona Lane in Nuuanu and responded with 11 units
staffed with approximately 39 personnel. The first unit arrived on scene at 7:27 a.m. to
find smoke and flames emanating from a single-story residence.
Fire fighters secured a water supply and initiated an aggressive offensive fire attack to
bring the fire under control at 7:32 a.m. All searches for occupants confirmed that there
was no one in the building during the incident. Overhaul techniques were performed to
look for hidden fire in void spaces of the building to ensure the fire did not extend into
other areas of the building. The fire was extinguished at 7:39 a.m. All HFD personnel
were accounted for with no reports of injuries.
The HFD Fire Investigator was requested to determine the origin and cause of the fire as
well as provide damage estimates. An update will be sent out once the final
investigation report is complete.
