Honolulu police have opened a first-degree robbery investigation after three male suspects allegedly robbed a visitor in Waikiki.

The suspects fled on foot with money taken from the victim. No injuriies were reported.

Thats in an area of heavy tourist traffic. And we can’t even criticize the poor guy for being out past midnight.

Where is Steve McGarrett when you need him?

Oh - that's right - Jack Lord died in 1998.
Drat.

There are too many ice-head (meth-heads) homeless around here, combined with the punk Micronesians that may as well be ice-heads.

That very short street (Ena) is right behind me, and I have to cross it to go shopping for groceries, and walk UP it if I need to go to 7-11 (the same one that the guy had his hand chopped off at a couple of months ago).

It happened at 2PM (afternoon).
I don't even go out past around 1900 (7PM), and I have a knife in my hand (unopened) when I DO walk across or up/down Ena.

That is right down the street from where the 7-11 clerk chopped off a customer’s arm with a samurai sword a couple months ago.

My brother owns a condo just between these two activities.

:-(

The ‘S’ building, right?
I walk past it when I go to The Food Pantry (local grocery market).

Go over to the Hilton Hawaiian. Look up for the tarps over the railing. That’s right by his.
