A second man has been charged in an armed robbery broken up by an alert security guard at a Ward Avenue arcade.

Faaiu Raymen Faaiu Jr., 26, pleaded not guilty to first-degree robbery and kidnapping before Circuit Judge Richard Perkins on June 5. His trial has been scheduled for August.

He remains at Oahu Community Correctional Center, unable to post $250,000 bail.

According to a court affidavit, Faaiu robbed the Winner’z Zone at 320 Ward Ave. with Toutaimana Downer, 19, on April 24.

When Faaiu and Downer walked up to the arcade at 1:56 a.m., security guard Paulay Asiata told Faaiu the arcade was closing. Faaiu then pulled out a silver handgun and told a group of people standing outside to go into the arcade, court documents say.

Faaiu put the gun to the back of Asiata’s head and said: "I’ll blow your brains out! Show me the safe!"

But when Faaiu was distracted, Asiata wrestled the gun away from him.

Faaiu ran out the door, and Asiata turned to Downer and detained him until police arrived.

Authorities identified Faaiu through security camera footage and in a photographic lineup. He was arrested May 22 at OCCC, where he was being held for an unrelated probation violation.

Downer was charged with first-degree robbery and kidnapping April 30.

He remains at OCCC unable to post $100,000 bail. His jury trial is scheduled for July.
