Mae Irene Melovidov, 47, originally from the Unangan community of St. Paul Island, was living in Anchorage when she and two others were sheltering in a tent near Karluk Street and East 5th Avenue on the evening of March 10, 2014. Just after 6 p.m. a lone man approached the campsite, pulled open the tent flap and fired several shots into the close quarters.

Robert Workman, 55, died at the scene; Mae was transported to a local hospital with life-threatening wounds and died a few hours later. A third camper suffered critical injuries but survived. The shooter fled on foot and no arrest has been announced; the attack remained an open case in later police briefings and cold case files.

If anyone was near Karluk Street and East 5th Avenue that night or has information about the man who approached the tent, please come forward.
