This morning, Alaska State Troopers sent out a public release asking for any information that could be provided to aid their search for an individual connected to a violent crime. 55-year-old Danny Lowry is considered a person of interest and was last seen in the Seward area.
According to AST A-Detachment Deputy Commander Mike Henry, the violent crime involved a death, and investigators with the Alaska Bureau of Investigation, as well as a heavy Trooper presence, are currently on the scene.
“There’s multiple [ABI] investigators here from them that are currently investigating this,” said Henry in a call with KSRM. “There was a violent felony crime that occurred, and there was a death … all of the circumstances are currently under investigation.”
Capt. Henry said the name of the deceased is not being released at this time, as next-of-kin notifications are still in process.
While the search and investigation are ongoing, Henry said residents can expect a continued heavy law enforcement presence.
“Troopers are in the area of Seward, so there’s going to be multiple police around for a while,” Henry said.
Danny Lowry was last seen wearing a dark-colored hooded jacket near Balmat Street and Old Nash Road in Seward.
If you see Lowry, do not approach him and call 911 immediately.
