Video shows attack on woman, 76, in Hawaii robbery

HONOLULU, Hawaii -- Police are looking for a group of men involved in three separate robberies of the same Hawaii store owned by an elderly couple, reports CBS affiliate KGMB.

The first robbery occurred on Friday, May 13 at 9 a.m. Two masked men entered the Y-7 Grocery and Liquor store, allegedly threatened the 74-year-old male owner with weapons, before demanding money and running away. Then, on Monday, a customer found the female owner, 76, bleeding on the ground.

Police investigators reviewed the store's surveillance video and saw three men robbing the store. One of the men can be seen on the video wrapping his arm around the woman's neck. She appears to eventually pass out and fall backward onto the floor.

Police say another man took money from the cash register while a third acted as a lookout.

The victim remains hospitalized with injuries to her head.

The store was robbed again on Tuesday, police said. A suspect got away with a bag of chips and other food items.

One of the suspects from Friday's robbery turned himself in on Tuesday night and was arrested at about 7:15 p.m.

Police confirmed that a suspect in Monday's robbery also turned himself in at around 11 p.m. Tuesday.

Authorities are still searching for others who may have been involved. Anyone with information that can help police find the suspects is urged to call CrimeStoppers at 955-8300 or by *CRIME on your mobile device.
