A Kona man has been charged with 28 offenses in connection with the alleged theft of a credit card.

A 55-year-old Kailua-Kona woman reported in May that her credit card had been stolen and used on several occasions without her permission at various retail locations in Kona, according to the Hawaii County Police Department. Detectives from the Area II Criminal Investigations Section investigated the case and developed a suspect.

On Monday, police arrested 32-year-old Jonathan K. Donner of Kailua-Kona. He was charged with seven counts of fraudulent use of a credit card, seven counts of identity theft, four counts of forgery and nine counts of theft, according to police. He was also charged with criminal contempt of court for an unrelated case.

His bail was set at $163,000.
