ANGRY GOLFERS FIRED AT MORE THAN FLAGS

The violence at the Koolau Golf Course began when members of one foursome began complaining that golfers in the group in front of them were playing the course too slowly, hitting three or four balls each off every tee.

Two of the men got into a fist fight on the 18th tee.

The incident then appeared to be over as both groups went to the clubhouse.

But as everyone left, two men from the first foursome parked their van just outside the course and flagged down two men from the second foursome as they drove out, police said.

When one of the men from the second foursome got out of the car, the passenger in the van got out and fired several shots from a semiautomatic pistol.

Police were looking for the occupants of the van. - Associated Press
