Honolulu police: Robert Allenby wasn’t kidnapped or at a strip club

Robert Allenby maintains he can’t remember a two-and-a-half hour stretch after leaving Amuse Wine Bar in Waikiki Beach on the Friday night after missing the cut at the Sony Open in Hawaii.

The Honolulu Police Department did their best to fill in the blank on Thursday.

Detective John McCarthy told the Associated Press that the three people Allenby was seen leaving the wine bar with around 11 p.m. that Friday night were not connected to the golfer. McCarthy said the three people returned to the bar shortly after walking out in front of the Aussie.

McCarthy also said there’s no evidence to suggest Allenby was in a nearby strip club after leaving Amuse.

”There is no evidence he was ever in that strip club,” McCarthy said. ”Our investigation shows he was not at Club Femme Nu.”

Chris Khamis, a 47-year-old homeless man who said he tried to help Allenby get a cab back to his hotel, previously claimed Allenby told him he had been to a strip club earlier in the night. A previous report also suggested Allenby had been at Club Femme Nu. It appears to have been a case of mistaken identity, confusing other Aussies in the club with Allenby.

Police told Allenby that he remained in the same place for that stretch he cannot recall.

”On the ground, laid out cold,” Allenby said. Police, who spoke with homeless people who saw the incident, told Allenby he simply passed out and fell to the ground. Allenby contends he doesn’t remember falling and that he still could have been punched.

“I do remember a hit into the eye, but I don’t remember what it is,” Allenby said. “The scar on my head is a fall. But did I fall from getting hit in the eye? I’ve tried and tried and can’t remember.”
