A man was arrested Thursday morning after he was found with one of two dogs reported missing from the Hawaiian Humane Society on Tuesday.
The Humane Society said a pitbull mix named Punu was recovered after someone called the adoption shelter Thursday morning with a possible sighting of Punu and a terrier mix. Both dogs were reported missing from the shelter on Tuesday after a man had a “meet and greet” with Punu.
The Humane Society said that after receiving the tip, police located a man with two dogs near Royal Elementary on Queen Emma Street. A microchip scan identified Punu, but a smaller dog was determined not to be the terrier-mix.
Honolulu police arrested the man.
