Hawaii Island police are seeking the public’s assistance in identifying two individuals responsible for breaking into two storage units in the South Kohala District.

At about 9:05 a.m. Wednesday, South Kohala Patrol officers responded to a report of a storage unit break-in located at Waimea Self Storage, according to the Hawaii Police Department. Through investigation, it was discovered that two storage units had been unlawfully entered and numerous items were removed, to include a moped.

Video surveillance captured two people entering the premises in a spraypainted black-colored extra-cab Ford Ranger pickup truck with a light gray-colored camper top and a tan-colored tailgate with fraudulent license plates.

The vehicle was occupied by the driver, described as a heavyset female with medium complexion, black-colored hair, and wearing a maroon-colored shirt and blue jeans, and a passenger, described as a Caucasian man with fair complexion, a slender build, blond-colored hair, wearing a black-colored baseball cap, a bandana around his face, a yellow and orange-colored long sleeve shirt, and black shorts, according to police.

Anyone with information about this case is encouraged to contact South Kohala Patrol Officer Adam Roberg via email to Adam.Roberg@hawaiicounty.gov or at the South Kohala Police Station at (808) 887-3080.
