Apparently a brouhaha occurred over a bag of vegetables on Liberty Street. Kalispell Police Department dispatchers heard, “Go ahead ... you’re dead. You’re gonna pay for every bit of it,” over an open line. The woman making the threat got on the phone and said she was attacked by another woman who allegedly either threw something at her or hit her. One of the women was said to have broken a fan by throwing it. The incident may have started when the two women went to the store, got home and found a bag of vegetables missing. When one of the women asked the other woman’s husband about it, things “escalated from there.” Whatever went down, the vegetables were returned to the freezer.

Someone’s suspicions were raised when a man wearing saggy sweat pants came to a resident’s door on U.S. 2 East in Columbia Falls saying his vehicle broke down on the side of the road and he needed shoes for his aunt.
