Public Safety Report

Tracie Ann Davis, 53, of Delta Junction was charged October 14 with Permitting an Unauthorized person to drive. It stemmed from an incident on June 5 when Ranger Wyat Derner was patrolling the Clearwater Recreation Site. After speaking to two boaters who had just come off the water, he moved on to the day use where several people were fishing from the riverbank. One was an adult, Jacob Martin, two 14-year-olds and a 16-year-old. He saw six poles for four people, but Alaska law restricts it to one line per person while fishing. Martin said no one had a fishing license and that he himself was on probation out of Texas for assault. Derner also learned that one of the 14-year-olds had driven to the site without an instructional permit under the supervision of Martin, who has a revoked license. It was admitted that Tracie Davis, the mother of the 14-year-old, had allowed the unlicensed person to drive. Parents were notified to come pick up their children. Both Davis and Scott Emerick responded to the scene. Meanwhile, an Alaska State Trooper was called in, who ultimately provided Martin a ride from the recreation site.

Chad Leo Foreman, 43, of Eagle River, was charged with one count of wanton waste of big game animals and wild water fowl; exceeding the bag limit, which is one moose; and an additional count of permit hunt conditions. Around September 19, Foreman supervised a 15-year-old youth hunter, his son, who was conditionally required to have an adult present in a youth moose hunt. They were hunting in the Donnelly Training area. Under Foreman’s supervision, the youth shot and killed a cow moose accompanied by a calf, which is against the conditions of the hunt. When approaching the downed moose, another moose appeared and the youth also shot that moose, believing it was the first moose he shot. However, that moose was a young calf, less than 12 months old. Both moose were field dressed and on September 20, Foreman and his son met the Alaska State Trooper at the Delta Post. Foreman turned in the first moose and when asked about the lack of neck meat and brisket, he said the meat was back up there, in the hunting area. Further investigation showed a second moose, a less than 12 month old calf had been shot.
