Teens report knife-point robbery in Kakaako
Police are investigating a complaint filed on behalf of three teenagers who reported being robbed by as many as five other teens late Saturday night in the Ward Avenue area.
The teens, who were 16 to 17 years old, told police they sitting in their car at about midnight Saturday night when when five other teenage boys approached, police were told.
The boys appeared to be between 15 to 17 years old and one of them asked the boys in the car for a dollar.
The group in the car told the other boys they did not have any money, police were told.
At that point, two of the boys in the group that demanded money drew knives while a third put on brass knuckles and told those in the car to hand over their wallets, police were told.
Police subsequently arrested one of the suspects in the case on suspicion of first-degree robbery.
He was later released to his parents without charges pending further investigation.
