BETHEL — Troopers at the Anchorage airport last week seized 71 bottles of whiskey from a 38-year-old southern California man bound for Pitka’s Point via St. Marys.
The WAANT investigators found the alcohol in the North Hollywood, California man’s luggage.
St. Marys’ local option laws ban the sale of alcohol. They allow importation of alcohol, but it must be labeled.
They say the investigation is ongoing.
