A man was arrested after he was confronted by a family returning to the home he was allegedly burglarizing.
At 4 p.m. Sunday, a 57-year-old man returned to his home on Hoene Street and found two men on his lanai. One had a Louis Vuitton bag full of items taken from inside the home, police said. One of the suspects threw the bag at the victim and fled on foot.
The man chased the suspects and apprehended David Daniel Styopin, 18, of Kailua-Kona, and held him until police arrived.
Styopin was charged with first-degree burglary, second-degree theft and unauthorized possession of confidential personal information. His bail was set at $6,000.
