Three men have been released while police continue to investigate a robbery Sunday in Waikiki that ended up with the victim and two alleged assailants facing criminal charges.
Police said two men, ages 52 and 44, allegedly tried to rob a third homeless man, age 62, near Kapahulu and Kalakaua avenues around 7 p.m. Sunday. None of the men have a local address.
However, the 62-year-old man allegedly attacked and stabbed the 52-year-old man, who was taken to the hospital in serious condition with stab wounds to his stomach.
The 62-year-old man suffered injuries to his head and face. He was arrested on suspicion of first-degree assault.
The 52- and 44-year-old men were arrested on suspicion of second-degree robbery.
The three were released by police Monday.
Scary east end hoods.
I guess the “victim” crossed the line between self defense and assault. Kind of hard to tell sometimes. I doubt he’ll be charged with first degree assault though.
