ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A standoff was underway Sunday in a tiny southeast Alaska village after a man fatally shot two of the village’s four full-time police officers the night before, then barricaded himself in his home, local officials said.
Bob Prunella, city administrator, said he didn’t know what led to the shooting.
The suspect, 45-year-old John Marvin Jr., was barricaded in his home.
There was no sign of a quick end to the standoff, Prunella said Sunday evening.
“This could go on for a while,” he said. “They really want to get him alive.”
