Police have arrested a 22-year-old Hilo man who failed to return as ordered to Hawaii Community Correctional Center and became the subject of a public wanted bulletin.

Austin Juanito Fernandez was arrested Sunday on Ahuna Road in the Panaewa area and charged with revocation of supervised release.

He was also booked on suspicion of bail jumping, but that charge hasn’t been filed.

Fernandez is being held without bail at the Hilo police cellblock pending his initial court appearance today.
