The man in the upper left of this photo seems to be wearing a KONA-KAI t-shirt.
This image is from the files of the LAPD. It was taken the day the S.L.A house in Los Angeles burned down in a police siege.

See the section titled MOVE TO LA AND POLICE SHOOTOUT for a writeup of the event;

Dramatic photo from a dramatic event.
If I recall, the LAPD burned down the entire block long building.
But was Patty Hearst wearing a Tiki necklace?
