A Nanakuli man arrested on outstanding warrants has been charged with a March 7 home-invasion robbery in Mililani.

Keo Kahanamoku Aiwohi, 29, was charged Saturday with robbery and burglary and is being held in lieu of $100,000 bail pending an initial appearance today at District Court. Aiwohi is also being held on four bail revocation warrants for other offenses totalling $44,000.

The Mililani robbery occurred at a Hokulewa Place residence. A woman resident, 79, suffered broken ribs and a collapsed lung in the robbery. The case is being prosecuted by the new elderly abuse unit of the Honolulu prosecutor's office.

Aiwohi is the second suspect accused in the Mililani case. Matthew Makaio Ako III, 37, was charged last week and is being held in lieu of $200,000 bail.

Aiwohi was featured Thursday in a Honolulu CrimeStoppers bulletin. He was brought to the main police station Friday by prosecutors to be booked on the warrants and was arrested at 2:50 p.m. for investigation in the Mililani robbery.

Ako and Aiwohi, who are 5 feet 10, 230 pounds and 6 feet, 220 pounds, respectively, were among several suspects involved in the Mililani robbery, according to prosecutors. Among the items stolen was a car belonging to the injured victim and her husband.

Ako has 25 convictions and Aiwohi has four.
