Caller concerned about car's whereabouts

| August 30, 2015 9:15 PM

A 10th Avenue West woman called the Kalispell Police Department to report she had lent her car to a friend and allegedly couldn’t get it back. The friend told her the vehicle had already been picked up by somebody. When pressed, the friend had no idea who had taken the vehicle. It turns out the car had been towed and it had slipped the mind of the “friend.”

A man came into the Department of Motor Vehicles and attempted to register a stolen vehicle. The counter worker stalled the man until officers arrived, and when they did the whole thing was found to be a mistake. The motorcycle had previously been stolen, but then recovered. When the “suspect” bought it from the owner, he found out the hard way the bike hadn’t been removed from the stolen vehicle list.

At a U.S. 93 residence a man reportedly head-butted a woman in the face. Attempts to call the woman to check on her went unanswered.

Several vehicles were allegedly drag racing in front of a church on U.S. 2. The caller said it was an ongoing issue, and they were littering as well.

A woman reportedly went to the door of a Meridian Road home demanding the owner house and feed her. The resident did not know the strange woman and thus declined.


A hotel guest on Monterra Avenue called the Whitefish Police Department when, while lounging by the pool, a man allegedly pointed his finger at the caller “like a gun” then pointed it back at himself. The man then reportedly sent a text to the mother of the caller stating that she had better be prepared to raise their child. They had previously been married and death threats had apparently occurred in the past.

A woman was reportedly stranded in downtown Whitefish when the man she was having an argument with left her there. She needed to get belongings from his house and had a flight to catch in less than three hours, but didn’t know where he lived.

A group of people raising the volume at a Silverleaf Drive home were reportedly splashing in a hot tub, loading a cooler into a truck and eventually just yelling. They were told to keep it down by officers.


A driver on Dorothy Street called the Columbia Falls Police Department when a woman in a Honda was allegedly trying to ram the man’s pickup truck.
