A 23-year-old woman is accused of attempted murder for allegedly shooting a man in the Western Alaska community of Lower Kalskag last week.
Raven Levi, 23, was arrested for first-degree attempted murder after allegedly shooting the 39-year-old man in the abdomen, according to an online dispatch from Alaska State Troopers. The shooting victim — who troopers did not identify — was flown to Bethel and then Anchorage for medical treatment and listed in serious condition.
Friday around 11:40 p.m., troopers in Aniak received a report that the 39-year-old Lower Kalskag man had been shot. A medevac responded from Bethel, picking up a trooper and village public safety officer while en route, the dispatch says.
An investigation found Levi, also of Lower Kalskag, shot the 39-year-old victim with a .44-caliber revolver, troopers wrote. She is being held at the Yukon Kuskokwim Correctional Center.
Levi and the victim are believed to be in a relationship, said AST spokesperson Megan Peters in an email.
