Body Found on Backer’s Island
by Chief Hal Henning
On 8/8/2015 at approximately 0830 hours, two fishermen observed a body on the beach at Backer’s Island. They determined the individual was not breathing and called 911. SPD responded with EMS and determined the individual was deceased. The individual was identified as 47 year old Troy Dean Fisher from Grand Junction Colorado who was temporarily working in the area. The body was transported to the State Medical Examiner’s office in Anchorage for autopsy. The incident is still under investigation and more information will be released as it becomes available.
