On October 1, 2025, the Honolulu Fire Department (HFD) received a 911 call at 2:33 p.m. and responded to a residential building fire near 87-1648 Farrington Highway in Nanakuli with 12 units staffed with 40 personnel. The first unit arrived on scene at 2:40 p.m. to find a fully-involved fire at a single-story residential structure.

Fire fighters secured a water supply and initiated a defensive operation as the structural integrity of the building was not sound. The fire was brought under control at 4:41 p.m. and fully extinguished at 5:25 p.m.

The American Red Cross was contacted to assist the seven displaced residents – five adults and two children. All HFD personnel were accounted for with no injuries reported.

An investigation has been initiated to determine the fire’s origin and cause as well as to provide damage estimates. An update will be sent out once the final investigation report is complete.
