Arctic Man Incident | Alaska State Troopers: Ice Patrol


with the sunsets the activity level
rises in the RV park and troopers head
out to patrol the wild scene
it’s Friday night at Arctic man and they
are getting ready to just get I defy you
to spot someone holding a beer
it doesn’t take officer Pete Steen long
to find one
this man was driving his snow machine
erratically we do this sometime to do
one time I think so you’re kind of
younger dead if you take a normal breath
hold it for a second he’ll chew on your
mouth nothing like that no gum
big steady breaths for me please
blow up and keep going blow harder net
keep going
point two four three yes
legal limits 0.08 so that’s a little
over that’s almost three times the legal
limit for troopers patrolling the park
discretion is the name of the game many
violations that would call for citations
on their normal beats may just be a
warning here at Arctic man
don’t loan them it’s a B misdemeanor in
our presence we got their arrest report
deterrence is a big factor for us we
routinely have troopers in there paired
up visible so we can deter anything
it’s only 20 degrees but things heat up
just outside the bar a fight pulls in
every available trooper
trooper Jason Woodruff attempts to help
a victim of the scuffle but he doesn’t
want it
he’s keeping it more and more fun
they were trying to get him help and
they told me spitting blood everywhere
and uh he spit on me
spit spit blood on me I told him several
times that we’re trying to get him help
and he spit blood on me and at that
point that’s when we detained him and
took him to the ground and put handcuffs
on him to keep him from spitting any
more blood as you can see I got it in my
mouth all of my face in my mouth was
what I’m most concerned about
I guess it’s just a good thing we all
have to pay me
