Now their four children are without parents and their families are left to wonder what went wrong. The shootings happened about midnight. Neighbors said they heard an argument then gun shots coming from the couple's home at 91-1635 Kaukolu Street. Neighbors identify the victim was Della Dikito, 38, a mother and grandmother. They said she was shot in the downstairs bathroom of their home. Her husband, Domingo "Bunny" Dikito, then went into the garage and shot himself. "To have a family with something like this happen, it's very shocking," said Horace Dudoit III who lives a few doors down Kaukolu Street. The shooting stuns and saddens neighbors. Their greatest concern is for the Dikito's four children, a 19 year old son, and three daughters all 15 or younger. "I heard that two of the young ones was home," Dudoit added. None of the children nor any of the neighbors were hurt, but they could have been. One of the bullets penetrated the Dikito's garage door, flew across the street, went through a vinyl fence on the other side of the road and into the yard next door. Selena Schuelke lives in that home across the street. "I've got some pieces that came off from my fence where the bullet went through," Schuelke said while picking up small pieces of vinyl from her back yard. "Lucky we weren't in our patio or anything," she added. A co-worker told KGMB9 Della Dikito worked at Better Brands in Waipio, a liquor distributor. Neighbors say Domingo Dikito worked at Hawaii Logistics in Campbell Industrial Park, a food distributor. "I feel so badly for those children. They have four children and I used to see the husband there playing with his children all the time and I would never in my wildest imagination would have known that this would happen," Schuelke said. "Send out a lot of prayers to the kids because they are going to need help," Dudoit concluded. A relative tells KGMB9 the Dikito's children are staying with one of their grandmothers for the time being. |
