High-speed cameras are mounted in front of the lightbar on three Honolulu Police Department cars to track license plates and help identify stolen vehicles.

A 25-year-old Mililani man nabbed on Saturday with the help of new high-speed camera technology adopted by the Honolulu Police Department was charged with multiple offenses Monday.

An HPD officer using a recently installed automated license plate reader — which allows for rapid search of HPD’s database of vehicles and drivers — stopped Maui Remigio in Moiliili as Remigio was allegedly driving a vehicle that was reported stolen.

Remigio was charged Monday with unauthorized control of a propelled vehicle, possession of burglary tools, third-degree possession of dangerous drugs, possession of drug paraphernalia, air gun restrictions and three contempt warrants. Remigio’s bail was set at $15,000.
