In Kalispell’s corner of the Spider-Verse, a man on his way to the gym after finishing his work shift called the police to report his “Spidey Sense was tingling” as he drove past a “sketchy sedan” in a parking lot. Using their regular human abilities, Kalispell Police officers located the occupied vehicle, which was “out of gas and out of battery.” 

A sporty gray Toyota reportedly hit a sign while zipping through a roundabout. Alcohol bottles were allegedly spotted in the car, which also smelled of marijuana. Montana Highway Patrol was also notified about the incident. 

A skinny man with a ponytail reportedly refused to cooperate with employees who tried to stop him from shoplifting a portable battery and charger. He kept on walking despite their protests, strolling northbound on the sidewalk along U.S. 93. 

A business owner complained about a fraudulent website claiming to be their business, using photos of their products, address —“everything” — and customers had allegedly lost money because of the fake website. 

A woman, who was difficult to understand, called the police to report that her heater was not working. While talking to an officer, it reportedly started functioning again and she said the boiler might be acting up. Otherwise, everything was OK, and she said she was not going to be evicted from her apartment.  

A resident asked officers to check on the welfare of a man on the ground who wasn’t responding to them. The man eventually sat up and started talking.
