INFORMATION RELEASE

From: Erann Kalwara - JPD PIO
Case or Incident: #2024-06180009
At about 1:07 a.m. on June 18th, 2024, a 39-year-old Juneau woman reported she had been shot, possibly with an airsoft gun.
JPD officers and Capital City Fire Rescue responded to the private residence where the woman was calling from. The woman sustained injuries to her upper arm and her torso consistent with round pellets from a high powered airsoft gun. She was transported by ambulance and treated for her injuries at Bartlett Regional Hospital. She was released from BRH a few hours later.
At this point in the investigation, it is believed that the woman was outside on private property in the area of the 5300 block of Commercial Boulevard when she was shot twice. The woman left the immediate area where the assault occurred and called 9-1-1 approximately an hour later.
The investigation is continuing.
All factual allegations contained in this release are based upon preliminary investigation and are subject to change or clarification as the investigation continues. Any charges reported in this release are merely accusations and all persons named in this release are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
