Police looking for three bank robbery suspects
Police are searching for suspects in three bank robberies, two of them committed back-to-back on Saturday possibly by the same man.
On Saturday the Bank of Hawaii Chinatown branch at 101 North King Street was robbed at 10:15 a.m.; and the American Savings Bank, Walmart Branch, located at 700 Keeaumoku Street at 11:05 a.m. The First Hawaiian Bank, 1580 Kapiolani was robbed at about 2:30 p.m. Friday.
On Saturday in Chinatown, a male handed a teller at Bank of Hawaii a demand note and stated that he had a weapon, police said. He fled on foot in an unknown direction with an undisclosed amount of money. He is described as caucasian, medium build, short gray hair, brown eyes and he was wearing a dark Polo shirt and aviator sunglasses.
Then at about 11:05 a.m., a man handed an American Savings teller at Walmart a demand note, and fled on foot with an undisclosed amount of money. Similar to the earlier robbery suspect, he was described as a caucasian male of medium build with thinning black hair, brown eyes and wearing a dark colored Polo shirt and aviator glasses on his head.
In the Friday robbery, police said the man handed a teller a note demanding money and indicating he had a weapon. He fled on foot on Kapiolani with an undisclosed amount of cash. The suspect is described caucasian and of stocky build, in his 50s. He has white hair and a white mustache, and walks with a “distinct waddle,” police said.

lol, pretty good photo. He’ll be turned in by someone unless he’s an outta State Visitor. lol
Working vacation!!
Looks like a happy local waiting for another free handout. It is likely that he does not have a weapon. Looks like one of my many customers at the Pizza place in Waikiki.
What place is that allie. You always mention this joint.
Looks like someone everybody will know.
I’m pretty sure that he can’t run very fast so he should be easy to catch.
his “distinctive waddle” is going to be even more distinctive when he hits the federal pen. lol
Might be hard to find; there are plenty of waddlers in Honolulu.
yikes!
yep the city council.
The Democrats!
Going dye his hair black, shave off his mustache, wear long pants, T-shirt and slippahs. “As not me…” Sorry, can’t do anything about the waddle.
prolly use a walker or wheelchair for awhile being my guess
always happens especially around this time of year…. chasing all year playing 6-5 and now gotta pay up before bowl season.
Walmart? Really on the ball!
Is that a disguise?
Given that bank robberies aren’t that common in Hawaii I’ll go out on a limb and say this is the same guy. There’s a chance that this guy actually wants to be sent to federal prison, though I think I remember reading that he could also be sent to state prison depending on the circumstances. If you want to get caught and go to prison I guess robbing a bank is the way to go.
As dakines braddas uncle.
