A dead puppy, a blood splattered window, and a threatened family remain after a violent incident in Napaskiak over the weekend.
According to a police affidavit, Alexie Evan, age 22 of Napaskiak smashed in the puppy’s head and threw the body against the bedroom window of his ex-girlfriend and her husband. The impact splattered blood across the glass. When the puppy hit the ground, Evan left a threatening note with a racist slur on the body.
The puppy belonged to the ex-girlfriend and her husband and was usually on the porch and arctic entryway of the home.
The husband’s aunt reported the incident Saturday to the village public safety officer and told the officer that Evan had threatened her nephew before. At the beginning of the summer, Evan had spray painted a derogatory statement on her nephew’s tool shed.
When the incident occurred, the ex-girlfriend was out of town, visiting family upriver. She told the officer she was scared to return to Napaskiak, afraid Evan would kill her seven-month-old baby. She said, while she and Evan were dating, he told her if she ever got pregnant with someone else, he would kill the child.
Evan has been arrested and charged with two counts of stalking in the second degree, one count of criminal trespass, and one count of animal cruelty. He has been remanded to the Yukon Kuskokwim Correctional Center.
His trial is set for December 12 in Bethel.
