Kalispell Police officers temporarily shut down a portion of South Main Street on Monday after several downtown businesses were found pockmarked with bullet holes, authorities say.
Officers spotted the bullet holes while investigating a complaint on the 300 block of South Main Street about 9 a.m. A section of the road was closed while investigators searched for evidence, officials said.
Traffic was opened by mid-morning Monday.
While the bullet holes remain under investigation, authorities said it does not appear that anyone was injured during the incident.
