A woman reported dropping her wallet, which contained cash and identification, in the parking lot of the shopping center — which is likely the Matsuyama Food Mart convenience store center, which also houses Head to Sole Massage and Kay’s Kitchen — at 3 p.m. July 6.

Video surveillance footage shows an unknown woman picking up the wallet and placing it inside a gray 2023 Jeep Wrangler, with Hawai‘i license plate ZLK 608, before leaving the area.

Anyone who might recognize the suspect in the surveillance video or who has information about this incident is urged to call Hawai‘i Police Department’s non-emergency number at 808-935-3311 or email Officer Eli Cayetano at eli.cayetano@hawaiicounty.gov.
