On Feb. 10, Anchorage Police responded to an Anchorage residence regarding an indecent exposure claim that had been made.
Police said the parent at the home told them that a man, identified later as 41-year-old Natchez J. Dunlap, had exposed himself in front of a juvenile under the age of 16.
The crime had reportedly taken place in the hot tub at Alaska Club South located at 10931 O’Malley Centre Drive approximately 30 minutes before officers were called by the parent.
Dunlap had left the club prior to police notification.
According to the parent, the Alaska Club had reviewed the footage of the incident and indicated to her that they would not report it to the police; however they would revoke his gym membership. The parent did contact police; the video corroborated that the man was fondling himself in front of the girl.
Detectives from the Crimes Against Children Unit began an investigation and on March 11, 2024, detectives obtained a felony arrest warrant for Dunlap for the charge of indecent exposure in the first degree.
Dunlap is aware he has the warrant but has not turned himself in. Efforts to locate him have been unsuccessful thus far, police said.
Dunlap is reported as six feet tall, 190 pounds with brown eyes and black hair that is dyed a shade of blonde. The police do not indicate his skin color, but it is dark, according to the photos provided by police and by the parent. Anyone with information regarding his whereabouts is asked to call Police Dispatch at 3-1-1 (option #1) or 907-786-8900 (option #0).

Natchez has a history of felony-level arrests in Alaska.
Meanwhile, a Fairbanks woman who went to Planet Fitness in Anchorage reported there was a man in the women’s locker room who was shaving. She was uncomfortable and approached him verbally to let him know he did not belong in the women’s locker, and also told the staff. The man allegedly told her he was a queer male and would not leave. The staff was unresponsive to her request, she said.
Patricia Silva told her story on Facebook in a video:
Planet Fitness took away the membership of a Michigan woman several years ago after she complained about a transgender woman in the locker room. She was told that Planet Fitness has a “no judgment policy” that allows people to use locker rooms based on “their sincere, self-reported gender identity.” So far, Silva has not had her membership revoked, but may self-revoke it, and was warning other Alaskans to watch out for their children in gyms.
