Hawaiʻi Island police are asking for the public’s help in identifying a person wanted in connection with a burglary investigation.

An unknown person entered a house on the 800 block of Kukuau Street in the Sunrise Estates subdivision in Hilo without permission. The suspect’s image was captured on surveillance video.

The suspect appears to be a male in his late teens to early 20s, wearing a black T-shirt with white lettering on the front, black athletic shorts with a vertical blue stripe on the legs, white shoe, and a black baseball-type cap with a red letter “R.” He was also wearing a gray backpack.

Police ask anyone with information about this case or the identity of the person in the photos to call Officer Christopher Jelsma at 961-2284 or 961-2221 or the Police Department’s non-emergency line at 935-3311.

Tipsters who prefer to remain anonymous may call the island wide Crime Stoppers number at 961-8300 and may be eligible for a reward of up to $1,000. Crime Stoppers is a volunteer program run by ordinary citizens who want to keep their community safe. Crime Stoppers doesn’t record calls or subscribe to caller ID.
