A Kailua-Kona man is facing a host of charges stemming from a theft of mail incident.

Peter Milone, 29, was arrested Friday when detectives from the Area II Criminal Investigations Section and members of Area II Special Enforcement Unit served a search warrant at a residence in Kailua-Kona, according a press release from the Hawaii Police Department. A subsequent search warrant on Milone’s vehicle was drafted and yielded additional evidence in the investigation.

Milone was charged with nine counts for forgery, two counts of theft, one count each of promoting a dangerous drug, attempted theft, unauthorized possession of confidential personal information and ownership possession prohibited.

He is being held in lieu of $81,000 bail pending an initial court appearance, according to police.
