A Wasilla man has been arrested and charged with 11 counts that include Assault and Weapons Misconduct charges after an early Sunday morning weapons incident at a bonfire, troopers report.
At 2:05 am on Sunday morning, troopers responded to a report of a shooting at the Coal Hills at the end of the Jonesville Mine Road in Sutton. It was reported that a man had shot into a crowd of people there while shooting from a moving vehicle. Injuries and damages at the scene included one person grazed under the right knee, and two vehicles near the bonfire were also struck.
