Hawaiʻi Island police searching for 3 men who allegedly stole a Suzuki motorcycle in Kona

Hawaiʻi Island police are investigating the theft of a black 2020 Suzuki motorcycle that occurred late Saturday morning on Jan. 31 in Kailua-Kona.

Between 9:50 a.m. and 10 a.m., unknown suspects removed the motorcycle that had been parked and unattended in a parking lot fronting the 74-000 block of Makala Boulevard.

Police learned three unidentified males loaded the motorcycle onto a trailer attached to a red 2005 Toyota 4Runner with Hawaiʻi license plate HKK635. The vehicle was then seen leaving the parking lot toward Makala Boulevard.

The same 4Runner had previously been observed in the parking lot of a big-box retail store in the 75-1000 block of Henry Street, where a male matching one of the suspects’ descriptions exited the vehicle and entered the store.

He is described as a local male in his early 20s wearing a dark-colored beanie, a dark shirt with red and blue stripes, dark pants and black-and-white Jordan 11 Retro Low Concord shoes.

Police ask anyone with information about this incident to contact Officer De Jesus Monteiro of Kona Patrol at 808-935-3311. Tipsters who prefer to remain anonymous may call Crime Stoppers at 808-961-8300.
