Keoki R.K. Tafaoialii, 37, was indicted Oct. 17 on two counts of terroristic threatening in the second degree. The state has issued a $20,000 warrant for his arrest.
In the indictment, Tafaoialii is accused of making threats of violence Oct. 11, class C felonies.
In a news release Oct. 17, Sitka Police Department said a man wearing body armor had made threats while in a medical facility parking lot on Oct. 11. He had been dissuaded from carrying out any threats and had returned to his home. When police contacted him there they found he was in possession of a firearm, ammunition and a tactical vest. Police convinced him to seek a medical evaluation and he was taken to the hospital, the press release stated.
