You have to wonder just how low people will go sometimes…

According to our friends over at Transworld Surf via LA Times blogs, “San Diego police are searching for a 34-year-old surfer who allegedly stole $13,000 in cash and Krugerrand gold coins from a 92-year-old woman and may have skipped out to Hawaii. Raymond George Wilkins was acting as caregiver for the victim, police said. He was known in the Pacific Beach neighborhood and is thought to have purchased a one-way plane ticket to Hawaii after the theft. Wilkins, 5-foot-9, 180 pounds and known to favor earrings in both ears, is wanted on a fugitive warrant and can be extradited when found, police said.”

The faster we get this story plastered all over the ‘net, the sooner we get him out of the water, off the streets, and back to face the heavy charges that are awaiting him back in San Diego. So everyone, especially all of our 5ones friends out in the islands, take a good long look at this guy’s mug (I know, easier said than done) and keep an eye out for him. The last thing a haole on the islands wants as a reputation is to be known as the caregiver who cleaned out his 92 yr. old patient. Whether it’s the real police, or Hawaii’s own Karma Police, with enough cooperation Mr. Wilkins isn’t going to be experiencing a whole lot of Aloha on his temporary stay in the islands.
