    Judge takes law into his own hands

    Associated Press

    HONOLULU — It got personal for a judge in Honolulu when he put a man in a chokehold for jumping onto his bench and breaking a flagpole bearing the state flag, authorities said.

    District Judge Lono Lee knocked down Steven Michael Hauge and restrained him Monday after the man caused a ruckus in Lee’s courtroom, said Department of Public Safety spokeswoman Toni Schwartz.

    Hauge had been going from courtroom to courtroom in the Honolulu District Court building screaming, State Sheriff Shawn Tsuha said.

    “He was quite upset about something,” Tsuha said.

    It was not clear why Hauge was in the building. Court records show a criminal record dating to 1977 with more than 50 convictions on charges including, burglary, fraud and assault.

    Hauge was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct, obstruction of government operations and fourth-degree criminal property damage.
