Police Charge Canadian Visitor With Sex Assault of Minor

Hawai‘i Island police have arrested and charged a 21-year-old man from Calgary, Alberta, Canada, with first-degree sexual assault in connection with the reported assault of a female minor in West Hawai‘i.

On Saturday, Nov. 1, 2025, detectives from the Area II Juvenile Aid Section arrested Einreb John Pasuquin Dizon following an investigation initiated by South Kohala patrol officers. The investigation revealed that Dizon had recently traveled to Hawai‘i from Canada and, upon arrival, met with a minor he had previously connected with through Roblox, a popular online gaming platform. He allegedly rented a bed-and-breakfast where he engaged in sexual contact with the victim, conduct prohibited under Hawai‘i law due to the victim’s age.

After conferring with the Office of the Prosecuting Attorney, detectives charged Dizon on Sunday, Nov. 2, 2025, with first-degree sexual assault, a Class A felony. His bail was set at $250,000, and he made his initial court appearance on Monday, Nov. 3, in Kona District Court.

Due to the sensitive nature of the case and the age of the victim, no additional details will be released to protect the juvenile’s privacy and well-being.

The Hawai‘i Police Department reminds parents and guardians to remain vigilant about their children’s online activity and to discuss internet safety, particularly regarding online gaming and social media platforms where predators may attempt to contact minors.

Police ask anyone with information about this case to contact Detective John Kari of the Area II Juvenile Aid Section at (808) 326-4646, ext. 265, or via email at john.kari@hawaiipolice.gov.
