Kaneohe woman’s neighbors chase down burglary suspect


Advertiser Staff

A 39-year-old man with no local address was arrested yesterday after neighbors of a Kaneohe woman chased him down, suspecting he had just burglarized the woman’s home.

The neighbors told police they saw the man emerging from the home with a large black bag and confronted him, at which point he took off running.
The chase lasted for several blocks and ended when arriving police officers found the man hiding on the roof of another home.
Police reported finding a black bag containing items they believe were taken from the woman’s home.
After witnesses identified the suspect, he was arrested about 6:45 p.m. on suspicion of first-degree burglary as well as an outstanding contempt of court warrant.
