2 found shot to death

MEADOW LAKES — Alaska State Troopers are investigating the shooting death of a man and a woman discovered early Sunday morning.

According to an AST press release, the bodies of Anthony Torres, 41, of Wasilla and Natasha Clark, 32, of Wasilla, were found at 8:57 a.m., Nov. 3 inside a home in Meadow Lakes.

AST spokeswoman Megan Peters said the two had a relationship with each other, but the nature of their relationship is still unclear to troopers.

“Investigation revealed both parties suffered apparent gunshot wounds to the head. A pistol was found at the scene next to Torres,” according to the press release.

Peters said that as of early Monday afternoon, troopers were not seeking any suspects.

“At this point we have nothing to suggest that anyone else is involved; however, we are still following up on other leads and are waiting on an autopsy report,” Peters said.

A worried family member made the initial call to troopers seeking a welfare check at the residence off Sylvan Road in Meadow Lakes, she said.

A search of court records shows nothing but relatively old driving infractions for Torres. The only Anthony Torres listed in Mat-Su Borough property records has a $24,000 building on land in the Fairview area.

Clark’s record in the court system was similarly minor with just a single speeding ticket in 2005. She has no entries in borough property records.
