Jessie K. Dutro, charged Sunday with auto theft, fled from HPD's Alapa'i station basement cellblock on Monday by picking a defective cell-door lock and opening security doors by using two keys left unattended, police said.

Police said on Wednesday that 14 of 53 adult cell door locks at Central Receiving had been defective. Yesterday, police said those locks should be fixed by this weekend at a cost of less than $1,000.

HPD spokeswoman Michelle Yu said the city Department of Facility Maintenance will replace worn springs in the faulty locks.

Dutro was captured shortly before 4 a.m. yesterday by police officers responding to a security alarm at the YMCA's Windward branch at 1200 Kailua Road. Dutro was found in the facility's multipurpose room at 3:49 a.m. attempting to hide behind a small easel, police said.

Dutro and a 23-year-old Waimanalo man were arrested on suspicion of burglarizing three YMCA rooms, police said.

Detective Jack Snyder said a patrol officer responding to the alarm saw a light go on and off in one of the rooms and called for other officers. While checking the grounds, officers saw two men on the roof of one building, Snyder said.

The men jumped down to the courtyard and attempted to run. Police captured the 23-year-old man in the courtyard, and Dutro inside one of the rooms, Snyder said.

Police said cash was taken from the YMCA administration office and was found with the suspects.

Snyder said the men apparently got into the YMCA by removing louvers to a room where swimming pool equipment is stored. They then got into the administration building by removing an air-conditioning unit mounted on a wall, police said.

Dutro was arrested on suspicion of second-degree escape in addition to second-degree burglary.

Although Dutro has no adult record, according to the Hawai'i Criminal Justice Data Center, he was known to be a "serious juvenile offender" to police in Windward O'ahu. In 2001, he escaped from the Hawai'i Youth Correctional Facility while on a work line, said a law-enforcement official. He was found after that incident and returned to the facility, where he served the remainder of his term.
