George Tretikoff, a 63-year-old Native American/Indigenous man, was found dead alongside another adult just after noon on October 31, 2020, inside a Fairview apartment in the 500 block of East 15th Avenue in Anchorage. Police were called at 12:01 p.m.; responding officers discovered the two deceased and the medical examiner was asked to determine cause of death while detectives and the crime scene team processed the residence.

In the days after the discovery, the Anchorage Police Department’s Homicide Unit developed a suspect and obtained an arrest warrant. On December 30, 2020, members of APD’s Investigative Support Unit located and took the suspect into custody for questioning; authorities identified him as 26-year-old Christopher Ligons and announced he faced multiple counts related to the killings. An Anchorage grand jury later returned an indictment listing counts connected to both deaths and a tampering charge. No additional suspects were announced.

If anyone knew George, lived in that Fairview building, or has information about what happened on October 31, 2020, please share details with investigators.
