US surgeon general Jerome Adams was cited for being in a closed Hawaii park in August.
The park in a rural area offers a picturesque view of Mokolii island, known as Chinaman’s Hat for its cone shape.
According to HuffPost, Adams was in the islands helping with surge testing amid a spike in coronavirus cases.
At the time, Oahu parks were closed by Honolulu Mayor Kirk Caldwell in an attempt to prevent crowds from gathering and flatten the curve of COVID-19's spread.
Court records show a remote hearing for Adams is scheduled for Oct.
