Robert Allenby: Arrest made in PGA Tour golfer’s “kidnapping” case

Hawaii Police have confirmed they have arrested a 32-year-old man on charges of identity theft, attempted theft and unauthorized possession of confidential personal information.

But in a press conference, Lieutenant John McCarthy told reporters there was no evidence of a kidnapping or a physical altercation.

“Honolulu police booked a 32-year-old male this afternoon for three counts of second-degree identity theft, three counts of second-degree attempted theft, and one count of unauthorized possession of confidential personal information,” the police statement read.

“The suspect was arrested at the Oahu Community Correctional Center where he was being held on a contempt warrant for an unrelated incident. The male has five previous convictions, including one felony drug conviction.

“I also want to thank the many people who have expressed their support and concern for me in the last month.”
