Several suspects are in custody in connection with a North Pole murder.
Alaska State Troopers report that a multi-agency investigation resulted in the arrest of six people, including two juveniles, related to the fatal July 22nd shooting of 60-year-old Charles Baptiste at a North Pole residence.
Troopers say the six were involved in a plot to rob Baptiste. Baptiste was killed and another man at the residence sustained a non-fatal gunshot wound.
The suspects face a mix of charges, including murder and assault.
