HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - The Prosecuting Attorney announced murder charges Tuesday against three Honolulu police officers involved in the deadly shooting of 16-year-old Iremamber Sykap.

Geoffrey Thom, 42, was charged with one count of second-degree murder. He is a five-year veteran of the force.

Officers Zackary Ah Nee, 26, and Christopher Fredeluces, 40, were both charged with one count of second-degree attempted murder.

The prosecutor’s office says all three face a mandatory sentence of life in prison with the possibility of parole if convicted for the April 5 shooting.

Fredeluces is a 10-year veteran of the force, and Ah Nee has been with HPD for 3 years.
