The Honolulu Medical Examiner’s office identified Agustin and said he died of multiple blunt force injuries. The manner of his death was pending an investigation.

Police said at about 7:30 p.m. Saturday, a 23-year-old Honolulu man was driving a 2015 Scion east-bound from the H-1 Freeway extension onto Moanalua Freeway when for “unknown reasons” Agustin ran across the freeway and directly into the path of the driver.
