George Kahakua Jr. turned himself in at the Hilo police station Monday and was charged with four counts of contempt of court. His bail was set at $1,450.
He was also arrested in connection with a car break-in on Sept. 21 in Hilo. A 28-year-old Hilo man reported that his car was broken into while it was parked off Kilauea Avenue near Aupuni Street. The man’s credit card was later used at a store on Makaala Street. Investigation led to Kahakua’s identity.
At 3 p.m. Tuesday, Kahakua was charged with theft of a credit card, fraudulent use of a credit card and three counts of ID theft. His bail for those offenses was set at $21,000.
