On 06/04/21 at 2204 hours, AST and WPD responded to a residence on Fairview Loop in Wasilla for the report of a home invasion and shooting. Investigation revealed an intoxicated 66-year-old male forced entry into a residence utilizing an axe while threatening to kill a 55-year-old female. The female homeowner subsequently shot the male with a pistol. EMS transported the intruder to a local hospital where he underwent surgery for non-life-threatening injuries. The Palmer District Attorney’s Office was contacted, and no charges will be filed on the homeowner. Investigation continues regarding burglary and assault charges against the suspect who’s still hospitalized.
“Here’s Johnny!”
BLAM!!!!
Better ending for “The Shining.”
I’ve spent quite a bit of time in Alaska, and it is pretty well armed with people having guns on them at all times. This coming from a Texas resident and frequent traveler to Wisconsin (Highest per capita gun ownership in the USA).
Alaska has the “handle it yourself” mentality, since police are not common, and in most of the state police response is HOURS away from you.
I saw mention of Wasilla, Alaska, I thought the topic would be Sarah Palin or her family. I’m thinking “What has her son Track done now?”.
Never mind.
Alaska: The land of car thieves, guns, meth heads and drunks.

And some great people!
The odds are good that the goods are odd.
I was helped out by a deputy in Montana after a car accident (hitting a deer). He said that I was lucky as he was the only deputy on duty and might have been two hours north in the county.
“Well, I MIGHT have been up there - but that is only after somebody is dead. They handle things themselves before they will call us. They don’t like us very much.”
Gun Control is hitting your target
As it should be.
She’s a better shot than the lady in the article.
