Wanted by Police: Aron Nagao, 19, of Kapa‘a

REPORT FROM KAUAI COUNTY –  Kaua‘i police are asking for the public’s help in locating a suspect who is wanted in connection with numerous criminal activities on Kaua‘i.  Aron Nagao, 19, of Kapa‘a, was observed getting out of a white truck in the parking lot of the Līhu‘e 7-11 store at approximately 3:23 p.m. today.  The truck had been reported stolen.  Nagao fled while police were in the front of the store apprehending a co-suspect in the crimes.

Officers pursued Nagao, and, as a precaution, placed the A-Plus afterschool program at nearby Wilcox Elementary School on lockdown, with a uniformed officer stationed on the school premises.  The lockdown was lifted once officers determined that the suspect was not in the vicinity.
