Man apprehended after being on lam for nearly 4 years

A wanted 34-year-old Puna man has been apprehended after nearly four years on the run, Hawaii County Prosecutor Kelden Waltjen announced Tuesday.

Richard Hauoli Kalani Subica Jr. was wanted on both a December 2017 Hawaii Paroling Authority warrant and an unrelated District Court non-appearance warrant when he was apprehended by Hawaii Police Department Officers and the U.S. Marshals Service, according to Waltjen.

Subica has five prior felony convictions, including two convictions each of ownership or possession of firearm prohibited and third-degree promoting a dangerous drug, and a single conviction of first-degree criminal property damage.
