What happen to Ben Chi (not sure of his name)? PM if you want
Or, of course, by posting it openly, he might have gotten an answer from someone else who knew him... or maybe even Ben himself. It's far from beyond the realm of possibility that they guy is a member here......You could have sent a Private Message. Or a Visitor Message

It's certainly possible; is that the correct spelling of his name?
Ben Chi was the assistant instructor in Hawaii who side kicked a teenager and stopped his heart correct?
If I remember right he was notorious for training gangsters and tough guys.
It was a front kick. What happened was it was 2am on a weekday morning, and he and his korean friend were going to eat at a local place. They were fooling around in line, so the girlfriend of some kid started making racist rude comments and continued to make those comments after everyone sat down to eat. Finally a challenge was made, both groups went outside into the parking lot, the kid (who was taller and heavier than Ben, a football player) came towards Ben to strike him, ben responded with a front kick in the chest, the guy went down, guy had a irregular heart beat from birth, ended up dying.
I don't know about that.
Ben Chi was an assistant of Mr Park, there was a third teacher Jay. I was in that class in KUHIO PARK Terrace. From what remember from the news was that this was at Zippys in Waimalu if I remember right. The kid was a stand out qtr back from Aiea high school. Bens kicks were deadly as a student of his I should know. It was a frontal kick to the chest that was struck at a perfect timing during the heart beat causing his heart to stop. Ben was not an instigator.HeIt was Bullshido now that I think about it. These stories get so changed around sometimes especially with taekwondo people.

And around those times Koreans were targets. And it's sad . That kid was a good qtr back. His mom then lost another son due to an accident I believe.foes anybody know what was his sentence Moved away.This was at Zippys.
We called him Ben ,i was a student of his in the mid 70s in KPT.Thanks Glenn. I've been so busy lately that I'd only have time to skim MartialTalk. That's why I posted it as a thread. But also because I wasn't sure about Ben's name and the fact of the trouble he got into in Hawaii with the incident with the local teenager.
