A 29-year-old man was arrested Wednesday afternoon after allegedly using a knife in an Ewa Beach robbery.

The Honolulu Police Department said the suspect confronted a 60-year-old man at around 4:15 p.m. Wednesday and demanded a chain he was wearing.

The suspect allegedly took the chain by force before pulling out a knife and cutting the victim, who had tried to take the chain back, police said.

The suspect fled on a bicycle, but was located by officers about 30 minutes later and arrested on suspicion of first-degree robbery.
