Feds arrest isle man wanted in Arizona

A 50-year-old Hau­ula man accused of sexually assaulting a child in Arizona more than two decades ago is in police custody awaiting an extradition hearing.

Ronnie Chisholm was wanted for investigation of two counts of sexual conduct with a minor and three counts of molestation of a child. All counts are classified as dangerous crimes against children, a U.S. Marshals Service news release said.

Chisholm is accused of engaging in various sexual acts on and sexual molestation of a 6-year-old child between September 1988 and September 1999, the release said. Chisholm was in a relationship with the victim’s mother while living in Mari­copa County, Ariz.

A Maricopa County grand jury indicted Chisholm in January 2000, but he had already left Arizona and was living in Hawaii.

Based on the grand jury indictment, an arrest warrant for Chisholm was issued Nov. 13.

Members of the U.S. Marshals Violent Offender Task Force and FBI agents found Chisholm at his Kaipa­pau Loop home at 5:45 p.m. Monday.

Chisholm was booked by Hono­lulu police pending a hearing for extradition back to Arizona.
