Anchorage police said the man was arrested Saturday night as he fled the east Anchorage homicide scene dressed only in boxer shorts and socks
He refused to give his name. He’s being held without bail at the Anchorage Jail on charges of first and second-degree murder, sexual assault and burglary in the deaths of Sorn Sreap, 71, and his wife, Touch Chea, 73.
Police in an announcement said both Sreap and Chea had suffered significant blunt force object injuries and that Chea had been raped. Police department spokeswoman Anita Shell said on-scene investigators were affected by the brutality and the ages of the victims.
“They said this was the worst thing they had ever seen in their lives, and these are seasoned detectives,” Shell said.
