Prosecutors charged a 32-year-old man in connection with an unprovoked attack on a male visitor in Waikiki.

Andrew Judge was charged Tuesday with second-degree assault. His bail was set at $11,000.

The victim was taken to a trauma center where he was treated for lacerations, contusions and a possible fractured right arm.

Police responded and arrested Judge on suspicion of assault.
