Woman's haunting six words after doctor allegedly tried to push wife off popular tourist spot after 'poking her with two syringes'

A woman's haunting six words have been 'revealed' after her husband allegedly tried to push her off a popular tourist spot.

Earlier this week, authorities confirmed they'd arrested a man in Hawaii, accused of attempting to kill his wife, Arielle Konig, while on a hike.

Following 'a brief foot chase', anesthesiologist Gerhardt Konig was captured by authorities after the incident on the Windward Oahu hiking trail.

Police said the 46-year-old allegedly tried to push his 36-year-old wife off the Pali Lookout and also attempted to strike her in the head with a rock at around 10am on March 24.

Following the incident, Arielle claimed that Konig also attempted to prick her with two syringes, however, it is not clear if they contained anything.

People reports that, according to an affidavit, Konig allegedly struck Arielle with a rock 10 times and grabbed the back of her hair before 'smashing' her face into the ground.

According to Arielle, the alleged attack occurred after she told Konig she didn't want to take a selfie with him, so close to the edge of the tourist spot.

“Arielle expressed that she did not feel comfortable taking a picture with him that close to the edge, so she declined and began to walk back,” read the affidavit.

Konig apparently 'yelled at her to come back, and when she refused, he pushed her into the bushes where they began to struggle'.

“Arielle indicated that she was yelling for help and heard two other hikers; she was able to crawl over to them,” it continued, adding that Konig allegedly had two syringes which he tried to 'use on her... but she was able to get them away from him'.

During the incident, a hiker was alerted to Arielle's screams and ran towards the pair where she allegedly saw 'a girl lying on her back in the grass with a man on top of her, hitting her on the head', per the affidavit.

The hiker recalled Arielle saying: “He is trying to kill me,” before adding: “He is hitting me in the head with a rock.”

Konig is said to have walked away while the hiker's friend allegedly called for emergency services.

Arielle was then transported to a hospital and was considered to be in a critical condition, with injuries to her face and head.

Meanwhile, Konig was taken into custody later that day.

He has since been charged with second-degree attempted murder, Honolulu police said, as reported by AP News. And his bail has been set at $5 million.

Sanoe Kaaihue, executive director of Women Helping Women, spoke of the incident and insisted that domestic violence can occur in any relationship.

She told Hawaii News Now: “Both prominent people in our community. Not just him, but also her. Highly intelligent, highly successful folks.

“DV (domestic violence) does not discriminate. I think time and time again, people are so surprised when they hear that it’s their teachers, it’s neighbors, it’s attorneys. It’s everybody from every single walk of life can be affected.”

She added: “What you’re seeing now is an outward expression of the things that they’ve been experiencing within the household.”

UNILAD has contacted Konig's representatives Myles Breiner and the Honolulu police department for comment.
