Randy Llanes, 47, had jumped into Kailua-Kona’s Honokohau Harbor while holding a spear gun, in an apparent attempt to catch the swordfish, witnesses said. Then he was dead in the water. “All we know is the next thing they know, the man is seen floating,” said West Hawaii Acting Battalion Chief John Whitman of Hawaii County's fire department. Llanes had tried to shoot the swordfish and somehow got punctured in his right upper torso, officials said. He was rushed to a hospital and pronounced dead there.
