Hawaii County police are looking for witnesses to a reported road rage incident Wednesday in Kailua-Kona.

Police said the 42-year-old female driver of a maroon Jeep honked at the male driver of a blue sedan after it allegedly cut her off, while leaving the Kona Commons shopping center on Makala Boulevard, police said.

The 31-year-old Kailua-Kona man and his passenger, his 30-year-old wife, got out of the sedan and allegedly confronted the woman driver at about 3:15 p.m. Wednesday.
