The animal shelter impounded six great Dane mix puppies after someone called the Kalispell Police Department worried they would get hit by a car after running into the road. Two girls trying to offload the passel of pups were sitting on a curb and trying to contain them with their arms. Officers contacted the girls’ parents who did not want the puppies.

A woman was irritated about driving through an apartment complex to get to her street because a dozen or so vehicles parked in front of a house purportedly made the road "barely passable." She wanted the police to talk to the vehicle owners. Responding officers found the vehicles legally parked, leaving plenty of room for a semi to drive through.

A sedan with stickers in the back window allegedly tried to run someone over who was playing with their dog in the street when the tennis ball they threw hit their car while driving by. The sedan reportedly backed up and stopped within a foot of them.

A man suspiciously walking around the side of someone’s house claimed to be from the FBI when the resident confronted him. The resident told officers the man, who did not give his name, said he was looking for an address they believed was fake and was driving a black Toyota 4Runner.

Someone had questions about people on probation being in a relationship.

A couple allegedly argued and threw things around in a daycare parking lot. An employee saw the man picking up his things and getting on a skateboard. The employee called back to add that security told them the woman was driving away in a black, lifted Chevy while he was hanging out of it.

A probation officer reportedly searched a woman’s vehicle and seized liquor and a meth pipe. 

Police spoke with the owner of a motor home about receiving another complaint about disorderliness and possible drug activity that needed to be addressed immediately, warning him that the property manager would evict him if the issue wasn’t addressed. 

A man moving out of a garage was allegedly accused of stealing items by another man. He called to report the incident to police but was confrontational and wouldn’t answer a dispatcher's questions. Parties were separated and he finished moving out.

Someone asked officers to check on a man reportedly lying on a bike path who was moving a bit and mumbling when they talked to him. The man was fine and was not intoxicated. He just wanted to lie down.

A woman’s ex allegedly stole and pawned a guitar while the couple were living together.

A male reportedly lying on the ground for 15 minutes told a passerby he fell off his bicycle and hit his head.
