Lawn-chair attack causes 'emotional pain'

| April 18, 2019 2:00 AM

A man called Flathead County Sheriff’s Office to report two men came out of a house and attacked him with their fists and a lawn chair. He reportedly went to a house uninvited to try and talk to his ex after she supposedly said she was drunk in Somers. The man denied medical attention because “this was emotional pain only.”

A man with a gun allegedly threatened to shoot a woman on U.S. 2 in Kalispell. She told deputies he started talking to her and offered to buy her alcohol and showed her his pistol and threatened to shoot her when she told him she was pregnant. She also claimed she saw on Facebook that the man was allegedly a wanted human trafficker.

An intoxicated driver took out a mailbox on Montana 40 in Columbia Falls.

Kalispell Police Department received a report that a woman was reportedly caught on video stealing sunglasses. Maybe she needed protection from the glare of the “skin-colored” leggings she was wearing at the time.

The liveliness of a group of more than 15 people sitting on a lawn between two businesses on Hutton Ranch Road apparently triggered a store “patron’s” sensibilities when they called to report the group was getting “rowdy and yelling,” and wanted the subjects “checked on.” The group dispersed.

A 2-year-old locked herself in a vehicle after she was buckled into her car seat. Police unlocked the vehicle and the child was OK.

A couple of children playing with a phone called 911 and hung up. When dispatchers called back a child answered “hello,” and giggling was heard while another child yelled “dad, I called 911.” Dad may have called back to report there was no emergency, just kids playing with the phone.

A possible drug-deal-gone-bad between four men was reported by someone who allegedly heard one man ask “where is my money?” The group proceeded to go outside and start beating each other.

A woman allegedly went through her vehicle to find a .22 missing after she came out of a pawn shop and noticed her truck was “messed with a little bit.”

A neighborhood resident heard crashing noises and said a donation bin had been “cleaned out” with all the items on the ground and suspected a man was sleeping inside it, but it was too dark to see. Police advised a man to move along.

A woman on Kalispell Avenue found a blob of paint sprayed onto her car, according to Whitefish Police Department. She was reportedly able to remove the paint except for some small specks.

Someone on Hospital Way spotted teens walking away with a sign that had been taken down while crews worked on the road. Police made contact with three teens, who allegedly admitted they attempted to take the sign, however, were unable to transport it and showed officers where the sign was originally located. The boys returned the sign and were counseled on their behavior.

A dog was seen chewing on a fawn on Skyles Place.

Fraudulent fundraising was reported by someone on Nucleus Avenue. Columbia Falls Police Department gave them a state fraud hotline number to call.

A youth was reported back on school property and was allegedly being “defiant with everyone” after reportedly running away on 12th Avenue West.

A car was seen driving up and down A Street where the driver was reportedly yelling at someone’s wife. No one wanted to file a report, but someone “just wanted people to slow down,” and requested police talk to the man and provide extra patrol.
