On arrival, they arrested Young and charged him with having no driver’s license, having no no-fault insurance and having expired weight tax and safety stickers.

The fugitive is being held in the Hilo police cellblock in lieu of $300 bail on the local charges and $170,000 bail on the Oahu warrants.
