Honolulu police are seeking several males after a 39-year-old man was fatally shot in Makaha Saturday afternoon.

The Honolulu Police Department said in a social media post that shortly after 2:30 p.m., a group of males argued with the man near Ohikilolo Ranch.

The 39-year-old was shot and the males fled toward Farrington Highway, HPD said.

The man was dead on arrival, EMS said.

HPD has opened a homicide investigation and said anyone with information on the shooting should call police.
