Police were called at 9;15 p.m. to that address and found the two victims with what appeared to be stab injuries to their head and face.

They were taken to the Kona Community Hospital where they were treated for non-life-threatening injuries, then released.

Police also arrested a 42-year-old Kailua-Kona woman at the scene on a $750 bench warrant.

Detectives charged Dunn with two counts of second-degree assault. He is being held at the Kona police cellblock in lieu of $10,000 bail.
