Unfortunately, this three-year-old in Seward was a little young to join the Troopers despite our best efforts. Fortunately, if you are 21, you are old enough to join. Find out more at AlaskaStateTrooper.com

Believe it or not, winter is finally coming to an end. While many of us won't miss the snow and the dark, we will miss the magic of the northern lights.

In memoriam: On this day in 2013, VPSO Thomas Madole went to interview a suspect in a domestic violence incident in Manokotak. Upon arriving at the suspect’s residence, VPSO Madole was ambushed. VPSO Madole was shot and killed while he attempted to seek cover. VPSO Madole served as a Village Public Safety Officer in the village for 1-1/2 years.

Happy St. Patrick's Day! The only thing we want to see "turning green" today is the Northern Lights, not your face in the back of a patrol car. Don't rely on luck to get you home tonight! If you are planning on partaking in alcohol, remember to drink responsibly and never drive while under the influence. Troopers will be out across the state ensuring that everyone gets home safely and follows the law.

Please join the Department of Public Safety and all Alaskans in honoring the life of Ashley Johnson-Barr, who was taken from this world too soon at ten years old in a violent crime. In 2020, Governor Mike Dunleavy, Senator Donny Olson, and the Alaska Legislature passed a law that declares March 12th as Ashley Johnson-Barr Day to bring awareness to the high rate of violent crimes committed against children each year in Alaska. While this loss is overwhelming, there is comfort in knowing progress can be made to ensure that other children will not encounter the same tragedy.

The 2026 Iditarod is well underway, and the mushers and dog teams are on their way to Nome. Troopers were at the official restart in Willow on Sunday to keep the public safe, engage with the community, and, of course, pet the dogs.

Your Alaska State Troopers were horsing around over the weekend -- after members of the public reported a group of ponies causing a traffic hazard, troopers initiated a short hoof pursuit in a North Pole NEIGHborhood. Fortunately, our patrol vehicles have more horsepower, and we were soon able to detain the four-legged culprits and give them disorderly conduct warnings before they made it safely back to their owners.

Your Alaska Wildlife Troopers recently did a trapping and community outreach patrol to Eagle, Alaska. While there is a road to Eagle in the summer, it is impassible in the winter, and the only way to get there is by air or snowmachine. Troopers Landers and Cummings traveled over 350 miles by snowmachine and were able to participate in an ice and snow depth activity with the students at the school in Eagle.

Alaska Wildlife Troopers recently participated in search and rescue exercises near Kodiak Island. Troopers, along with the @CoastGuardCAN and Kodiak Island Search and Rescue, conducted simulations where personnel aboard the P/V Camai required immediate medical attention. The ship was used as a platform at sea, and rescuers worked closely to coordinate with the Coast Guard helicopter. Interagency training ensures your Alaska State Troopers and our agency partners are able to respond quickly to any and all emergencies.

As the snow piles up, remember that four-wheel drive doesn't mean four-wheel stop. Our Troopers are patrolling 24/7 to keep our highways safe, but we need your help. Give yourself extra time, allow extra distance for stopping, clear your windows completely, always drive with headlights, and use winter tires. Stay safe, Alaska.

Yesterday, your Alaska State Troopers joined Governor Dunleavy and our partners in local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies to share the successes from our ongoing drug prevention efforts. During 2025, State Trooper-led task forces seized over 1,140 pounds of illegal drugs, including more than 17 million potentially fatal doses of fentanyl. The tireless efforts of our law enforcement community are making Alaska safer. Read the full report here: dps.alaska.gov/getmedia/bc2fb…
