Please stop posting judgemental, unnecessary comments regarding this story.  This is a very brief and incomplete synopsis of what happened, written by a reporter that was reporting from a "police spokesperson".  This is an amazing young man, who was with his FAMILY and was doing nothing wrong.  He was enjoying a summer night in the land of the midnight SUN.  We all do this.  If you are not from Alaska, you would never understand.  Negative comments not only hurt his family, they are extremely hurtful to all of his friends are devastated by this, and are doing what needs to be done - PRAYING.
