HONOLULU, June 10 (UPI) -- Bail was set at $1 million in Honolulu for the man suspected in six robberies, including that of "Lost" star Josh Holloway.

Holloway, who portrays Sawyer in the ABC series, and his wife were robbed of their credit cards and car by a masked man who entered their home as they slept in October. Prosecutors claim the incident was part of a three-week crime spree masterminded by Royce.

In addition to the robberies, Royce will face attempted murder charges for allegedly firing a gun during a break-in near the University of Hawaii and injuring an elderly woman when he allegedly forced her door open, prosecutors said.

"Cooperating witnesses" helped authorities tie the string of robberies together, officials said.

Royce's attorney said his client would enter innocent pleas to all 30 felony counts handed down Thursday by an Oahu grand jury.
