<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nIn Santa Barbara County, California, this fellow, Stephen Keawe Kekuewa, is running around loose, apparently, stealing from women. He meets them in public and tells them he’s a Navy SEAL, but, just by looking at him, you can tell it’s not true. After ingratiating himself with women, he gets into their homes and steals from them. From CBS News<\/a>;<\/p>\n He is believed to have temporarily removed door locks from several of the homes in order for a locksmith to duplicate keys to each property. While the women were away, Kekuewa allegedly entered the homes and took naps on the floor, washed his clothes and stole other items.<\/p>\n Detectives described Kekuewa as a transient who is living out of his 2001 black Chevrolet Tahoe. He is reported to be a very suave and skilled story teller who often meets his victims at local bars.<\/p>\n On March 10, he was cited for being an unlicensed driver, having an expired vehicle registration in excess of one year and for displaying false registration tabs. Authorities subsequently impounded the Tahoe.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n He goes by the nickname “Pineapple”, for some reason. There’s a fifteen-year-old article in the Los Angeles Times<\/a> that says he was a part-time high school football coach and he was arrested for the same thing back then.<\/p>\n Police said they arrested Keawe “Steve” Kekuewa, 29, of Hermosa Beach after a neighbor conducted a sting operation.<\/p>\n The neighbor reported that small amounts of cash had disappeared from his apartment over the last year. The man told police he hid a video camera in his bedroom, put a $10 bill in a pair of shorts on the floor and left the apartment for the day, according to Hermosa Beach Police Officer Paul A. Wolcott. The neighbor returned to find the cash missing, reviewed the tape and turned it over to police.<\/p>\n Police said Kekuewa told them he had obtained a key to the neighbor’s apartment.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
