Anchorage police reported Friday afternoon that there was a “large police presence” downtown in the area of Fourth and Fifth Avenues, between K Street and I Street. Anchorage Police Department spokesperson Cherie Zajdzinski confirmed in an email that police responded to the hotel.The exact reason for the response was not immediately clear and police said they would send updated information once they received it.
“As soon as they got out of their cars they were pulling out their rifles and their helmets,” Weatherman said. He said they began aiming weapons at a tower of the Captain Cook. “And then a cop ran over to me, he said I should probably get away from the windows,” Weatherman said. Johnson said police were not letting people leave via the exit that leads to K Street, but were allowing people to leave from other exits.
