Micaiah Keith McCullah, 39, of the Waianae–Makaha area, was killed on the night of November 20, 2019, after violence erupted in Makaha on Oahu’s Leeward Coast. Police said the shooting happened about 7:10 p.m. on Manuku Street, where medics found him with multiple gunshot wounds and pronounced him dead at the scene. Initial statements from authorities gave no immediate suspect information, leaving family and neighbors with unanswered questions.

Family and friends described McCullah as married, employed, and rooted in the local community; an obituary and a public fundraiser framed his death as a murder and reflected the sudden void left for his relatives. Subsequent reporting connected the fatal shooting to a melee at a Makaha park that same evening and identified two Waianae men, Sheysten James Ikaika Joseph and Brenon Kilinoe Joseph Nash, as later tied to the broader fight and to firearm-related charges and probationary outcomes in the state case.

Does anyone who lived in Makaha that night or who knew Micaiah have information that could clarify what happened?
