The Unalaska Police Department is coordinating an investigation into the circumstances.

The Unalaska Police Department is investigating the death of an unidentified adult male.

On Tuesday, around 8:00 a.m., local law enforcement and fire department staff responded to an emergency report of a bystander providing CPR on a man on a beach across from the Dutch Harbor Post Office, according to Unalaska Fire Chief Eddie Athey.

Emergency responders arrived to find the bystander providing CPR on the unidentified individual. They were unable to resuscitate him and he was pronounced dead at 8:15 a.m.

Athey said an Alaska State Trooper was present during the response, but the Unalaska Police Department is coordinating an investigation into the circumstances.

Athey has asked anyone with information to contact the local police at 907-581-1233.
