From one of the email Alerts issed 12/07/09:
At approximately 6:00 this evening I interrupted a break in at our neighbors house at 15-955 Lemiwai Rd. The house is a vacation rental and currently unoccupied. I saw both young men, probably in their early to mid 20's, both local, short hair and looked reasonably clean cut. One was dressed in a white tee shirt and plaid long shorts, the other had on beige tee shirt but I could not see what else he was wearing. The one in beige was standing as a look out, by a car that was parked under the trees at the intersection of A (Ama'u) and F (Lemiwai) facing down A street toward F. The car was an older model car, 4 door, metallic gold color. (probably 15+ years old)
As I was walking out our door leading down the stairs to our yard, I startled the man with the white tee shirt on as he was coming out of the neighbors house. He banged the door shut and began to run up the side of the yard as soon as he saw me. I ran down the stairs because I saw the car sitting out in the road and the other guy standing beside it. I unfortunately had bare feet and was unable to get to the driveway fast enough to get a licence number. They both jumped in the car and tore off down Lemiwai Rd. toward Beach Avenue.
The caretakers were not at home so my husband (David) called the police and then proceeded to locate the caretakers. The police arrived and took the details. The caretakers arrived back about a half hour later and confirmed the burglers had been in the house. They had attempted to remove a flat screen TV that was bolted to the wall and was obvious they had ripped through all the drawers. They don't believe anything was taken -
