California Family's Hawaiian Vacation Turns Violent After Alleged Racial Attack

A California family’s Hawaiian getaway turned to horror when its members were targeted as “Haole boys” and viciously beaten by a mob at a luxury Maui resort, leaving one with a huge head wound.

The violent brawl broke out around 10 p.m. on July 17 at the Kaanapali Alii resort in West Maui, where local officers responded to a disturbance involving roughly 30 people near the property’s pool.

Seven visitors from California, ranging in age from 17 to 62, told police they were assaulted after a group of young people allegedly threw chairs and attacked members of their family.
