Advertiser Staff Writer

Prosecutors today charged a 34-year-old man with multiple felony offenses stemming from two separate shooting incidents early Sunday in Nanakuli.

Obed Kay was charged with two counts each of attempted second-degree murder and first-degree robbery, and single counts of first-degree terroristic threatening, kidnapping and a prohibited firearm offense.

He is being held in lieu of $600,000 bail pending a District Court appearance tomorrow.

Kay also has an outstanding $200 misdemeanor warrant.

According to police, Kay allegedly tried to collect money owed him from a woman, 30. He allegedly held a gun to her neck and held her against her will before she was able to escape from him.

Shots were allegedly fired at the woman.

Kay later confronted a man, 34, at another location and allegedly robbed him of items and fired shots at him.

No injuries were reported.

The incidents occurred in the area of Akowai Road, police said.
