A woman reportedly told the Kalispell Police Department about a recent call from someone claiming to be from the bank she had an account with who accused her of being a money launderer and mule when a deposit was made using an elderly person’s social security money. She told an officer she had a financial partnership with an artist and shared a bank account with them at the bank. The officer told her the phone call was potentially a scam since “bank crimes” are reported to police.
A 16-year-old girl wearing pajama pants reportedly ran toward “graffiti rock” and punched an 18-year-old in the face multiple times.
A bearded man blamed a bad day as the reason why he was screaming obscenities and yelling at passersby and cars.
A man claimed his drunk girlfriend, whom he broke up with, told him she was going to come to his house. The man, who also sounded inebriated, reportedly told her he had firearms and “would react as necessary,” providing his address and telling her to show up. The woman also called officers, alleging she was home safe and having some drinks. She said he had cheated on her and assumed she was “going to go crazy,” which she wasn’t going to do.
A woman was concerned about “meth heads” in her neighborhood, alleging there had been a lot of foot traffic in the area and that someone rifles through her vehicle every night so she keeps it empty of belongings and the doors unlocked so no one damages it to break in. She was provided with the phone number for the drug task force, but she still wanted to talk to a Kalispell Police Department officer.
A man undressed down to his skivvies was reportedly washing himself in the bathroom at a big box store. He told the responding officer that he was cleaning himself up and that his van broke down in the parking lot. The officer counseled him about his actions. He said he wouldn’t do it again and was going to “run some errands” to get the van towed.
