Many of the assaults occurred near the Basher Drive Trailhead on the Anchorage Hillside. Police believe the attacks were likely perpetuated by a single suspect who was in custody Friday.

A patrol officer responded to the trailhead, and once backup units were in place — including officers who’d been looking for the suspect on the trails at the time — officers detained Ahmed, who they found lying down in the trees near the trail, according to police. “And we’re calling police, and he picked up handfuls of rocks, threw them at us, spit on us, and eventually got a really big rock and threw it at my husband’s back, which ended up leaving a pretty sizeable bruise.”
McGrevy and her co-worker then ran down the trail away from the man, in the direction of Wolverine Peak. After checking to make sure the man hadn’t followed them, they decided to keep going on their hike, and just take a detour on the way back to avoid the spot where they’d been threatened, she said.
Chingwen McGrevy hiked Wolverine Peak on Thursday. While hiking, she and a fellow hiker were threatened by an ax-wielding man and her tires were slashed on her vehicle when she returned to the Basher Trailhead parking lot.
