For years, Aleknagik s 911 calls have gone through the Dillingham police That s finally changed

6:53 Aleknagik is a small community 20 miles up the road from Bristol Bay’s western hub of Dillingham. It has around 200 residents, but no local police.  So, for years, when someone in Aleknagik called 911, the person on the other end of the line couldn’t offer direct help. That was dangerous, said Kay Andrews, Aleknagik’s city administrator. “Five years ago, my daughter tried to call 911, and she was told to call another number,” said Andrews. “This was an emergency. She has no means to write another number and then hang up the phone and call another number.” The problem was that 911 calls were routed to the Dillingham police, who don’t have jurisdiction in Aleknagik, because it’s outside of Dillingham’s city limits. The issue highlighted the patchwork and often inefficient emergency-call system in rural Alaska.

Suspected drug dealer from out of state arrested on Prince of Wales

Juneau, Alaska (KINY) - An out-of-state man who trespassed into an unoccupied residence in the Prince of Wales Island community of Hollis, has been arrested for allegedly operating a drug operation from there. An Alaska State Troopers dispatch reports vehicle tire tracks in recently fallen snow were observed going to the residence.  The person who oversees the property was out of state, but when contacted by Troopers said no one was to be using the residence. Alaska Wildlife Troopers and Village Public Safety Officers conducted a welfare check and found 46-year-old Ronald W. Griffin II of Washington State there. They obtained a search warrant and also found heroin and methamphetamine inside.   In addition, a large sum of U. S. currency was also discovered near the controlled substances.
