UPDATE 10:30 AM FRIDAY:

The Alaska State Troopers say they have taken two men into custody in connection with the shooting deaths of two troopers in Tanana on Thursday.

Nathanial Lee Kangas, 19, of Tanana was arrested Thursday for the murders of Sgt. Patrick "Scott" Johnson and Trooper Gabriel "Gabe" Rich, according to a troopers release issued Friday morning. Formal charges are being prepared by the troopers with the help of the Office of Special Prosecutions and Appeals.

Arvin Morse Kangas, 58, of Tanana was charged Thursday with fourth-degree assault and driving with a revoked license on Wednesday, according to a state courts database and troopers. Troopers say the charges stem from an incident with a Tanana village public safety officer Wednesday.

We have watched the Natgeo. TV show since it began.

"Sgt. Patrick Johnson was one of two Alaska state troopers who were shot and killed Thursday, May 1, in the remote village of Tanana, Alaska. Johnson and the other victim, Trooper Gabriel Rich, had previously appeared on the National Geographic Channel program "Alaska State Troopers," the channel said."

So do we have a case of one reality show star killing another reality show star?

Not sure if the guy from Tanana was one of those featured in the Discovery channel show.
