A man and two women were arrested in Waikiki early today by police for investigation of second-degree robbery and kidnapping.

The three were arrested at 1777 Ala Moana. The man, 24, and one of the women, 30, both of 'Ewa, were arrested at 12:05 a.m. while the second woman, 41 of Waipahu, was taken into custody at 2:15 a.m.

According to police, the three are suspected of confronting a man, 31, and woman, 29, at 8:30 a.m. yesterday in Waipahu. The male suspect allegedly assaulted the victims, demanding they sign over title of their Lincoln Navigator to him. The man drove the Navigator to a Pearl City storage unit where title to the Navigator was signed over as well as a second vehicle owned by the victims.

The two women allegedly followed the Navigator to the Pearl City site in their own vehicle.
