Police charged a 27-year-old East Anchorage woman with two felonies and a misdemeanor in connection with 14 vandalized campaign signs.
A campaign sign supporting Mayor Dave Bronson’s reelection faces traffic on Gambell Street in Anchorage on March 11, 2024. The sign has been vandalized with “Free Palestine.”
According to the police detective’s criminal complaint, he used cellphone records obtained through a search warrant to tie Pineda’s location to that of 14 signs vandalized at various locations across town in the early hours of March 11. “I’m deeply disappointed that anyone would feel it necessary to vandalize team Bronson signs in order to further a message or an agenda,” Stieren said. “But I’m grateful to the APD that they were able to find those responsible and make an arrest.”
