Ten people were arrested by the Honolulu Police Department, including politicians Kim Coco Iwamoto and Ikaika Hussey. "I participated sat on the sidewalk, blocking the scab busses because we have nurses standing right next to us who are ready to go in and work," Iwamoto explained. According to Kapiolani Medical Center, 25 patients were late for their appointments including two expectant mothers. "Patient care should never be deliberately risked or compromised. What happened this morning was disruptive and dangerous for our patients, staff and community," said Gidget Ruscetta, COO of Kapiolani Medical Center for Women and Children. HNA President Rosalee Agas-Yuu explained that there are many other entrances to the hospital, including the emergency room. "The main thing was the big scab buses. They just blocked it all up. They could've easily just gotten off the bus, go in, no problem," Agas-Yuu added. "I think we all came here with the intention of supporting the nurses and whether an arrest happened is secondary. The main thing is we want to make sure the workers, the workers at HNA, the workers at the hospital, get what they need," Hussey said. No nurses have been arrested. The hospital said it never asked for anyone to be arrested, only for assistance in opening its driveway. Kapiolani's nurses have been locked out by hospital management since Sept. 14.

"We get back to the table, we're ready," said Agas-Yuu. "Everybody's ready. We're just waiting. It's in their court. We gave our package that we, the nurses, are very happy with. And it's up to them."
