At Rest

Suicide
Village Police Chief Derek McDonald responded to reports of an intoxicated man, later identified as Harold Paniyak, 24, wielding a firearm, according to Alaska State Troopers. McDonald responded to the call with no firearm of his own, and was shot in the chest by Paniyak with a .35-caliber pistol. Paniyak then killed himself.
This record exists so that Harold Paniyak, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
