An Aleknagik man was arrested last Friday for smuggling alcohol into Togiak.
The VPSO met 31 year old Jeremiah Kyakwok at the airstrip in Togiak after receiving a tip that he was bringing alcohol into the village.
After obtaining a search warrant, the VPSO found 11 containers of whiskey in a box Kyakwok was carrying with him. According to state troopers, Kyakwok has two prior convictions for importation of alcohol which makes this new charge a felony. He was transported to Dillingham for holding. Bail was set at $500.
