POLICE BEAT
Game room robber remains on the loose

Advertiser Staff

Police arrested a 25-year-old Kalihi man and were looking for a second man following an invasion-style robbery at a game room on Kalakaua Avenue yesterday morning.

Witnesses said the two men forced their way into the game room near the 1600-block of Kalakaua Avenue, claimed they were police and ordered everyone inside to lie on the floor.

One of the men began searching the office area and located an undisclosed amount of cash while the second man approached a 49-year-old and shoved him to the ground, police said.

The two robbers ran from the game room but responding officers found one of them nearby.

He was arrested on suspicion of second-degree robbery and impersonating a police officer.

The second suspected robber remained at large as of this morning.
