Episode Details

At 2 a.m. Sunday, Bethel police responded to a domestic disturbance that turned deadly when a man pulled out a shotgun; officers returned fire, hitting him, and he later died in the hospital. No officers were injured. This marks the second fatal shooting by Bethel police this year—last March, an officer wounded a man holding a knife who refused to drop it. Alaska State Troopers have been called in to investigate, and once the Bureau of Investigation completes its report, the Alaska Office of Special Prosecutions will review whether the officers’ actions were justified. The case remains under active investigation.
