The Honolulu Police Department said that suspect was arrested at around 12:30 p.m. on suspicion of second-degree attempted murder, first-degree robbery and firearm charges.

The suspect allegedly approached a 46-year-old man at around 8 p.m. Thursday at the Windward City Shopping Center gas station and demanded money from him.
