Upset over trash, a man was yelling at a group of transients camped under a bridge. After responding, Kalispell Police officers calmed everyone down. They determined the bridge was within the county's jurisdiction and advised the man to call county officials about their ordinance.

A knife-wielding man caused concern at a Kalispell apartment complex after he made a strange comment to a woman and her friends about someone pooping on his porch. After her friends left, the woman made sure to lock the doors to her apartment.

An ex was back at her former boyfriend's house again after getting 86'd on an earlier occasion. Officers determined nothing illegal occurred this time because the woman was legally parked on a city street, but noted that she had been trespassed from the property.

Online harassment led a man to report his ex-friend to police.

Worried about a new tenant's "psychotic" friend with multiple restraining orders, a caller wanted to know whether the person was allowed to own firearms.

Water was bubbling up from pavement where a main line had recently been repaired.

Due to an untimely flat tire, a man had to leave a trailer full of hay at a roundabout on the Kalispell Bypass.

A dispute over money got out of hand when one party threatened to shoot the other.
