A 52-year-old Kailua-Kona man died early Monday following a two-vehicle crash east of the intersection of Kaiminani Drive and Laui Street in Kailua-Kona.  Hawaii police identified the victim as Robert N. Weinstock.  Police officers determined that  a green 2007 Ford pickup truck was westbound on Kaiminani before the Laui Street intersection when it crossed the centerline and crashed head-on into a 2003 Nissan SUV driven by Weinstock.   The driver of the Ford pickup truck, 26-year-old Justin Roban  of Kailua-Kona, was arrested on suspicion of “operating a vehicle under the influence of an intoxicant.”  He was released pending further investigation while being treated for injuries at the Kona Community Hospital. Those with information on this accident should call Officer Justin Hooser or Sgt. Bradley Freitas at 326-4646, ext. 229.
