Law Roundup

Flathead County sheriff

Flathead County sheriff's deputies received 10 reports of vehicles broken into or rummaged. Doors that had been shut (but not necessarily locked) the night before were wide open Saturday on cars on Conrad Drive, Cedar Drive, Cottonwood Drive and Alberta Street.

Nothing appeared to be missing from the vehicles in most instances. One lost an iPod; a neighbor reportedly saw two men break into that car. CDs were stolen from another.

What started as a beer theft from a gas-station store turned into a fight in the parking lot among the youths who reportedly tried to steal it.

A man reportedly became belligerent and threatened the neighbor who asked him to turn down his music.

A wallet stolen at a bar was found, sans $300 cash.

People whose vehicle had been stranded in a snowbank near Martin City since Friday managed to get out Saturday morning.

Judging by the size of the paw print he found outside, a Lupfer Meadows Road resident suspects the bear that destroyed his barbecue grill is a grizzly.

Kalispell police

Vehicle break-ins weren't restricted to the county's jurisdiction; Kalispell police received reports from Fourth and Fifth avenues east. In one instance, a woman said her pajama-clad husband had chased off two men, who appeared to be in their early 20s. In the other, the burglars cut the car's side panel and did $600 damage to the vehicle.

Nearly $400 is missing from a local woman's bank account; the suspect, thought to have stolen the funds electronically, is somewhere in New York.

Bartenders weren't serving alcohol to the teens who were dancing in a bar, but a male patron thought the minors' being there at all after 10 p.m. Friday was "inappropriate."

The woman police arrested at a bar was a legal adult - but she wasn't old enough to drink.

After he ran his vehicle into a tire store sign, a man was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Columbia Falls police

Columbia Falls police arrested a man suspected of passing bad checks at a gas station.

Alarms

Kalispell Fire Department ambulance took one person to the hospital after a rollover at Fourth Street and 10th Avenue West.

South Kalispell, Creston, Badrock and Somers fire departments were called to extinguish or check on grass fires Saturday.

Martin City Fire Department went to a possible illegal burn Saturday afternoon, when a man reportedly had pushed in a trailer with a tractor and was burning the insulation.
