Man arrested on sex abuse charges

ANCHORAGE — Police say they’ve arrested a 50-year-old Wasilla man on charges he molested a 15-year-old boy.

According to an Anchorage Police Department press release, Mitchell “Mitch” Hull was arrested Aug. 24 on one count of sexual assault and one of sexual abuse of a minor.

“The charges stem from a report from a 15-year-old male who told detectives that he had been sexually molested by Hull. In (an) interview with detectives, Hull made statements indicating that he had sexual contact with the juvenile male,” according to the press release.
