Sheriffs arrest two fugitives at Honolulu airport
State sheriffs this week arrested two men with unrelated extradition warrants near Daniel K. Inouye International Airport.
Deputies assigned to the Department of Public Safety Sheriff Division’s Airport Section on Monday arrested Anthony Spring, 34, on an extradition warrant out of Polk County, Fla., for failure to appear in court. He is wanted on charges including sexual battery of a minor, electronic enticement of a minor and unlawful use of a two-way communications device, according to a DPS news release.
Spring was arrested after deputy sheriffs stopped him for crossing against a red light at Ohohia Street in the airport industrial area, the release said. A subsequent ID check revealed the warrant.
Also Monday, sheriffs arrested Bo Zhao, 50, after he arrived in Honolulu on a flight from Korea.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents flagged his name in their system for having an extradition warrant out of South McHenry County, Ill., for outstanding charges including grand larceny theft and a probation violation.
Both cases were turned over to the state Department of the Attorney General, according to DPS, with extradition hearings held today in 1st Circuit Court.
