Hawai‘i Island police are investigating the discovery of a body located near the Hilo Bay shoreline.

Yesterday morning, South Hilo patrol officers and members of the Hawai‘i County Fire Department (HFD) responded to the shoreline after a caller reported observing a body at water’s edge. HFD’s chopper located the lifeless body and brought it to higher ground. The victim, who appeared to be a local male in his late 40s or early 50s, was transported to Hilo Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.  His identification is pending by means of fingerprint I.D..
 
Area I Criminal Investigation Section personnel responded to the scene to continue the investigation, which is currently classified as a coroner’s inquest. There were no immediate indications of foul play, however an autopsy has been scheduled for later this week to determine the exact cause of death.
 
Police ask anyone who may have information relative to this case to call the police department’s non-emergency number at (808) 935-3311, or Detective Casey Cabral of the Area I Criminal Investigation Section at (808) 961-2384 or via email at Casey.Cabral@hawaiicounty.gov.
