Alaska State Troopers arrested a Soldotna man who faces 40 criminal charges related to a string of burglaries at seasonal homes in the Big Eddy subdivision on the Kenai River in Soldotna.
At around 10:50 p.m. on Saturday, troopers in Kenai pulled over David L. Frost, 27, of Soldotna. Frost had a $25,000 warrant out for his arrest, according to a dispatch posted by troopers.
The 27-year-old had been wanted by police on a long list of charges related to a series of burglaries between October of 2017 and February of 2018.
According to reporting in the Peninsula Clarion newspaper, the thefts included "thousands of dollars in fishing gear, electrical equipment, gasoline, tools, DVDs and electronics."
Troopers began investigating the case last fall, according to the dispatch. In March, they found some of the stolen goods at a home in Kenai — and a vehicle stolen during one of the break-ins.
Frost is also accused of stealing items including industrial equipment and copper wire from a Nikiski business, according to the Peninsula Clarion.
Frost has 40 charges from the alleged burglaries, including numerous counts of theft, burglary, criminal mischief and vehicle theft.
When troopers arrested Frost they found drugs on him and added a count of misconduct involving a controlled substance, according to the dispatch.
Frost is being held at Wildwood Pretrial Facility in Kenai.
