PAHOA, Hawaii: The Hawaii County Police Department is looking to question a 19 year old Pahoa man in connection with the alleged robbery of another Pahoa man on Kaohe Homestead Road.

At 3:37 a.m. on Tuesday, Puna patrol officers received a call reporting that a 43-year-old man “was at a 24-hour convenience store in Pāhoa at around 2 a.m. when an acquaintance parked in the area offered him a ride home.”

The victim, who police say is from Pahoa, accepted the ride and was driven to an area off of Kaʻohe Homestead Road, where the suspect reportedly assaulted him and removed undisclosed items. Police say the suspect and two other men entered an early model dark green Nissan Pathfinder and drove from the area.

The victim sustained minor injuries but declined medical treatment.

The incident is classified as a second-degree robbery, second-degree terroristic threatening and first-degree burglary.
