Police arrested a 12-year-old girl yesterday in connection with the Oct. 1 robbery of an 11-year-old girl in Kalihi.

Police said the younger girl was walking home from school about 2:40 p.m. when the older girl confronted her, pulled her hair, threw her to the ground and demanded money.
A witness told the suspect to leave the victim alone, police said.
The suspect was identified later and arrested at school yesterday on suspicion of second-degree burglary.
The girl was later released to the custody of her parents.
