Two men appear in court for allegedly robbing cabbie

Two men with no local addresses made their initial appearance Monday in Honolulu District Court for allegedly robbing a Charley’s Taxi cabbie on Jan. 13.

Princes Buses Jr., 19, and Celow Woods, 20, were arrested and charged Saturday with first-degree robbery.

Their bail amounts were confirmed at $50,000 each.

A police highlight said the two men robbed a man using a “dangerous instrument.” A Charley’s Taxi video surveillance footage showed what appeared to be a handgun used.

Charley’s Taxi’s owner did not respond to a request for further details.

    Should be a no brainer to convict. Caught very clearly on camera and scrared the sh_t out of the poor taxi driver. Lock um up for a long time or deport asap.

    Where’s their mugshots? Let EVERYBODY see what these perps look like. More shame this way for them and their ohana than just sending them to jail for short sentences, if any. They don’t belong in the community. Hope all taxi companies installs cameras in their vehicles. Drivers been robbed and assaulted before. It will happen again.

    What a joke, $50k bail for robbery at gun point? These guys are a danger to the community and shouldn’t have bail. Here we go again, courts giving these guys multiple chances to inflict harm on the community. Keep them in jail, no loss to the community

      I agree also their bail should have been higher since a firearm was used in the commission of a felony crime….another example why the citizens have lost faith in the criminal justice system……

    These dumb asses did not realize they were on camera. The next guys will probably wear ski masks.
    Bet you dollar to donuts, the court will put these clowns on probation.
