Police probe fight at party attended by Palins

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — Police say they are investigating a fight that broke out among a large crowd at a party attended by family members of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

Anchorage police spokeswoman Jennifer Castro said Friday that police responded to a report late Saturday of a verbal and physical altercation among about 20 people outside a home in south Anchorage.

Castro says she can’t discuss specifics about what Palin relatives were there or what role they might have had in the brawl.

She says at the time of the incident, no one wanted to press charges and no arrests were made.

Castro says the case, however, remains under investigation.

Palin family attorney John Tiemessen was on a hunting trip Friday and unavailable for comment.
