Hawaii Island police seeking person of interest in multiple crime investigations

KONA (HawaiiNewsNow) – Hawaii Island police are seeking the public’s help in locating a person of interest in multiple criminal investigation.

Authorities are searching for Adam Krilla, 29, who suspected of a home burglary in Kona and stealing two vehicles in Holualoa.

He was previously arrested and charged and appeared in court on Jan. 16. The court granted Krilla supervised released but he was found committing multiple crimes shortly after.

While responding to a home burglary call on Saturday, police said officers recognized Krilla “ditching” a moped and fleeing the scene on foot with a woman trailing behind.

Authorities say that woman was Krilla’s alleged accomplice — identified as 24-year-old Latasha Cagampang.

She was arrested and charged on Monday with burglary, car break-in, theft and drug promotion after officers found Cagampang with a stolen Apple iPad and jars of medical marijuana totaling up to 145 grams.

A judge also granted Cagampang supervised release but she’s is not allowed to leave the Big Island.

Meanwhile, the search continues for Krilla. He is known to frequent the Kona and Holualoa areas.

He was last seen on Monday near the Alii Drive and Queen Kalama intersection.

Krilla is described as 5-foot-10, weighing 155 pounds, with short brown hair and brown eyes.
