A Sultan man, who is an Asian American and Pacific Islander, is being charged with a hate crime and multiple robberies after prosecutors say he targeted several Asian-owned spas
According to charging documents, Tuli Aumaunofo Kalani Tevaga is being charged with four counts of first-degree robbery and one count of a hate crime.
According to court records, a man called and scheduled a massage and arrived at the appointed time. After services were performed, he told the workers he did not have money and claimed he would call a friend to bring him the funds. The suspect fled in a vehicle, but investigators were able to look at surveillance video that showed the man leaving the business at 11:21 p.m.
The person who made the call said she had given her son permission to use her vehicle but reported he did not return it as scheduled. That call helped investigators link Tevaga to the robbery, court records state.
