A village public safety officer from Emmonak was arrested Wednesday
for pointing a firearm at three residents of the community. Alaska State
Troopers say they responded to the incident last Friday and their
investigation led to the arrest of 68-year-old Jay Leroy Levan.
According to Troopers, Levan is currently employed by the Association of
Village Council Presidents as a VPSO in Emmonak. Levan was arrested in
Anchorage yesterday and charged with three counts of third-degree assault
and one count of official misconduct.
