Big Island police are asking for the public’s help locating two men wanted on warrants.

Ted Barney John, 44, is wanted on warrants for bail jumping, unauthorized entry into a motor vehicle and third-degree theft, according to the Hawaii Police Department. He is described as 5 feet 7 inches tall, weighing 145 pounds with hazel eyes and brown hair.

John is also wanted for questioning in connection with a felony theft case, according to police. In September, an 87-year-old Kailua-Kona man reported that he paid a man to do work and after paying him for materials, the man cashed the check and never completed the work.

Joseph Roy Carrion, 32, of Oahu, is wanted on two bench warrants for contempt of court, according to police who noted Carrion frequently travels to the Big Island and may be in the Waikoloa area. He is described as 5 feet 5 inches tall, weighing 165 pounds with black hair and brown eyes.

Anyone with information about the cases should call the department’s nonemergency line at 935-3311 or Crime Stoppers at 329-8181 in Kona or 961-8300 in Hilo. All Crime Stoppers information is kept confidential. Crime Stoppers does not record phone calls or subscribe to caller ID.

The cases are being featured on the latest edition of “ Hawaii Island’s Most Wanted,” a project of Crime Stoppers Hilo Inc. It airs on Na Leo O Hawaii Community Television Channel 54 on Sundays at 5 p.m. and Fridays at 5:30 p.m. It also airs intermittently on Channel 53.
