A man on Fifth Avenue West called the Kalispell Police Department to report a neighbor who had parked in his reserved spot. The neighbor allegedly approached the man and began a verbal shouting match. The neighbor was trespassing on the property and so his car was moved.

A woman appeared to be slumping in and out of consciousness in her truck on West Idaho Street. A caller was concerned that she might be drunk or otherwise medically impaired. An officer made contact and the woman was fine.

Several malnourished-looking horses on Seventh Avenue West were the subject of a phone call from a concerned resident. An officer called the owner, as the horses did look skinny and needed their hooves worked on.

A caller reported that a man tried to hit her son with a car door at a gas station on Third Avenue East North. They were having a noisy argument in the parking lot and the mother wanted to press charges.

A car reportedly broke down on Whitefish Stage Road and was towed away after nearly causing traffic accidents. The owner was upset because the car broke down just a block from her house and the towing company was trying to charge her $200.

A blue car allegedly kept driving by a school on Main Street, and the occupants were breathing on the windows and drawing obscene images. A teacher called the police because she didn’t want the students to see that.


A Seventh Street West resident called the Columbia Falls Police Department to file a noise complaint on his neighbors. They were thumping on the floor and causing a racket.

A woman on Martha Road called the police to report that her Pomeranian dog was attacked by a “pitbull-type” dog, which allegedly ran away with the smaller dog in its jaws before dropping it. The poofy pup had puncture wounds and was taken to Flathead Pet Emergency.

A Martha Road woman called to report her husband hitting her and wanted to file a report. She stayed with a friend for the night.


The Whitefish Police Department was called to a bar on Central Avenue to remove a man reportedly acting very strangely and refusing to leave. He had attacked another man but calmed down when officers arrived and put him in a taxi.


The Lake County Sheriff’s Office made an arrest for driving under the influence on Joe Dog Drive at 2:08 a.m.

Another DUI arrest was made by Lake County in an ice cream parlor’s parking lot at 2:57 a.m.
