Armed robbery on Maui,
« on: June 15, 2017, 06:43:51 PM »
Two robbers wearing black leather pants, gloves, jackets and visored motorcycle helmets pistol-whipped a 59-year-old disabled Haliimaile man, knocked his friend unconscious and stole $20,000 from a just-opened safe Sunday, the victim reported Wednesday.

At 11:43 a.m. Sunday, Richard Ingram had been sitting in his 10-by-12-foot living room, talking with a friend, when he opened a safe to get some medication and “at that second, two guys busted into my door,” he said.

Im gona go with "friend" arranges to buy some "medicine", has him open the safe, friend signals other friends to rob him.

Does make you think, and in "Haliimaile"?    Not exactly a crime nexus from what I recall of Maui.


Certainly not Honolulu or Waianae..............where such an occurrence might be par for the course.

I think London's synopsis of the crime is probably correct.  I wouldn't show even my best friend how much money I had in my safe.  And why would you keep your medication locked in a safe?
