Man charged with taking jewelry, electronic items from home
Hawaii County police have charged a 20-year-old Hilo man for allegedly burglarizing a Hilo residence on Oct. 27.
Police arrested Tyler Leopoldino of Hilo and two others on Thursday in connection with the burglary, in which jewelry and electronic items were removed from a Kaumana Drive home.
Leopoldino was charged Friday with first-degree burglary and second-degree theft. His bail was set at $7,000.
