Honolulu police has arrested a suspect in the Robert Allenby theft case. His claims of kidnapping and assault charges, however, remain a mystery.
Reuters reported that a 32-year-old male suspect, whom the police would not identify, was in custody with three felony counts of identity theft and attempted theft, and one felony charge of unauthorized possession of confidential personal information.
Police, however, made no mention of the other allegations that Allenby made after he missed the cut last month at the Sony Open. He went out for drinks but was separated from his caddy and a friend after they paid their bar tab.
Allenby told police that he didn't remember anything else until waking up in a park that was miles away from the bar and said he had been beaten and had his wallet, cell phone, cash and credit cards stolen.

Allenby suffered facial injuries and said that a homeless woman he met in the park told him that she had seen a few men drive up in a vehicle and threw him out of the car.
Police had said that detectives had identified the case as a robbery and credit-card fraud case.
As the media began trying to piece together what happened to Allenby, they began to find inconsistencies with his allegations.
"I never lied to anyone," charged Allenby, according to the Golf Channel, about the incident that took place after he missed the cut at the Sony Open. "I only told you what I knew and what someone had told me. That is the bottom line. From that, obviously the media have decided that they are the most amazing experts at investigations. There is a reason why detectives in Honolulu are some of the best in the world. I think I'd really appreciate if we just let them do their job and maybe we could get to the bottom of it. But I think also what has been blown out of proportion a little bit is I was a victim, and all of a sudden you're putting all the blame on me.
"I take full responsibility if I did do something wrong. I have no problem in the world in owning up to if I did do something wrong. ... I realized that I don't have any friends in the media. Maybe one. That's it."
