Friday, September 22 2006

Unalaska, AK – A 32-year-old man was arrested yesterday for allegedly stealing more than $1,000 worth of whiskey and rum from an Unalaska liquor store earlier this month.

A criminal complaint filed with the District Court in Unalaska alleges Kenneth Harber stole two cases of Jack Daniels whiskey and one case of Ronrico Rum from the Alaska Ship Supply Liquor Store sometime between Sept. 6 and Sept. 9, prying the plywood door off a storage container behind the business. A manager at the UniSea Sports Bar and a fishing boat captain both told public safety officers that a man who matched Harber's description had attempted to sell them the whiskey shortly after the theft occurred. Both men turned down the offer.

Harber is being charged with second degree burglary, second degree theft and third degree criminal mischief, all felonies.
