Although two Aleknagik residents both safely returned from a foray into Lake Aleknagik, responding troopers arrested one and forwarded charges against the other, troopers reported.

Troopers received a report of two intoxicated subjects going into the lake near the village with only one returning, Dillingham troopers dispatched from Dillingham to Aleknagik for “possible search and rescue efforts.” Before they arrived at the community however, the second subject, a 15-year-old male was reported as “located and un-harmed.”

28-year-old Wassilly Kyakwok “was arrested on charges unrelated to this incident,” troopers reported. Troopers had been notified the day prior of a criminal mischief incident and probation violation by Kyakwok.

Troopers also state that charges of Minor Consuming Alcohol have been forwarded to the District Attorney against the 15-year-old teen.[xyz-ihs snippet=”Adsense-responsive”]
