Makalii Kahumoku-Jose was charged Thursday with first-degree unauthorized entry into a motor vehicle and second-degree theft, according to the Hawaii County Police Department.
The charges stem from Nov. 13 when a 41-year-old Kurtistown woman reported her vehicle, which was parked fronting a business on Keawe Street, had been entered and a duffel bag removed. Police said they were able to identify Kahumoku-Jose after viewing security video footage.
