A former college swimmer has been accused of killing a security guard during an early-morning attack at a condominium resort in West Maui.
Maui police said officers found Michael Dyer, 63, unresponsive at the resort on Lower Honoapi'ilani Road shortly after 5:30 a.m. on August 5. Medical personnel pronounced him dead at the scene.
Investigators said surveillance footage showed an unclothed man arriving at the property around 1:45 a.m., approaching Dyer's office and assaulting him before fleeing on foot.

About two hours later, officers responded to reports of a naked man in the nearby Kahana area. The man had sustained numerous abrasions and was taken to Maui Memorial Medical Center for evaluation.
Police later determined that the man found in Kahana was the same person seen in the resort's surveillance footage. Legend Storer was arrested on suspicion of second-degree murder and first-degree burglary, and an indecent-exposure charge was referred to prosecutors. He has pleaded not guilty.
Authorities have not disclosed a possible motive.
Who Is Legend Storer?
Storer is a 20-year-old swimmer from Lahaina who competed for Concordia University Irvine during the 2024-25 academic year. The university's athletics website listed him as a freshman specializing in breaststroke and sprint events.

Storer graduated from Maui Preparatory Academy in 2024 and was a two-time Maui Interscholastic League winner, according to his athletic biography. He also competed for the Lahaina Swim Club and was listed as a business finance major at Concordia.
The biography identifies Lahaina as Storer's hometown. Kahana, where police reported encountering the unclothed suspect, is several miles north of Lahaina on Maui's western coast.
