Aloha Puako Community,
There have been 3 break-ins and robberies sometime around Wed. 8/22/2019:
1)-A Puako owner heard something in his closet and found a guy in there. The burglar then stole the home owner’s car keys and drove off with the car.
2)-A Puako couple noticed their neighbor’s door was open. Neighbors are away. A gun was reported stolen, Police called.
3)-After Police left this home that the gun was stolen from, the burglar came back and stole more items. Wooden shutters ripped off, door kicked in, home ransacked.
Please keep an eye out for unusual activity in your neighborhood and report to Police immediately.
Mahalo,

Hi,
Where was the break in? Would locking your doors have helped? Events happening on an area of 1.5 miles of homes is very general.
Puako is such a public place it is hard to know who doesn’t belong especially since we have many attractions that bring the general public to this destination like 24/7 trash disposal, day users, snorkeling and diving events posted in Meet up, for profit land and water based businesses. The sale of over 12 properties and the constant flow of contractors and building trades or service personnel and vacations rentals to name a few.
Post this event if you like. We bring volunteers to Puako to help save our oceans. Our flyer is on the bottom.
