A deadly shooting over the weekend that resulted in the arrests of an Anchorage man and a teenaged boy was linked to gang activity, authorities say.
Kainoa Duarte-Borden, 20, faces counts of first- and second-degree murder in the shooting early Saturday morning in northeast Anchorage that left a 26-year-old man dead., say Duarte-Borden is also a suspect in two other similar shootings that happened just days earlier.
Video from the Holiday gas station showed that car at 1:38 a.m. with three men inside, the charges said. The car drove by or pulled in several times and parked at one point, and everyone went into the store before they left and drove off again. Shaw dropped to the ground at the end of North Bliss Street and the car sped away, the charges said. A woman walked up to Shaw and took a pellet gun from him and ran away.
One of the teens admitted to detectives that he was in the vehicle during the shooting, the charges said. He eventually told detectives the other teenage boy shot Shaw “after he asked if he was ‘hanging red,’ referencing gang affiliation,” the charges said. A man was shot on the 3300 block of Boniface Parkway at 11 p.m. and about 10 minutes later another shooting was reported about 4 miles away on the 100 block of Klevin Street, the charges said.
