The Kotzebue Police Department is investigating a report of shots fired on Jan. 4 a block away from the Kotzebue Bible Baptist Church. No injuries were reported, City Attorney Joe Evans said.

"At least two houses were struck with bullets, one of which we believe was the targeted house," police said in a statement. "The shooting is being investigated as an intentional attack and is not a random shooting."

Since it's an ongoing investigation, the city can't share information about the suspects, Evans said.

Kotzebue resident Mary Kingeak woke up early on Jan. 4 to messages from her family and friends urging her to keep her doors locked and stay indoors with her daughter until further notice.

"The community was in shock," she said.
