A 68-year-old woman in Anchorage who works for one of the many nonprofits around the city is being charged with destruction of two of Congressman Don Young’s campaign signs at the corner of Tudor Blvd and Old Seward Highway.
The woman’s mistake was in thinking she wasn’t on camera. Her license plate was recorded and turned over to police.
Although the charges have not yet shown up on the Court System website, Must Read Alaska has learned the Anchorage Police Department case number is 20-34106 and that the charges relate to malicious mischief. Police have made contact with the suspect.
A request for the arrest record has been submitted to APD by Must Read Alaska.
The photo above was submitted as part of a video clip by a citizen journalist associate of Must Read Alaska; it shows the two signs down, but does not show the extent of the damage. The citizen described the signs at “totaled.”
Must Read Alaska is not yet publishing the suspect’s name until an official report is accessible from the Alaska Court system or the police department records division, however it appears the suspect is a past employee of the Anchorage School District and currently works for an education nonprofit.
