Landlord asks for bizarre apology

| November 30, 2019 4:00 AM

The Kalispell Police Department received a call about a landlord asking his male tenant to “say sorry to his” genitals, although it was unclear what the original offense had been. The tenant was reportedly calling from his toilet. The landlord had reportedly used drugs in the past and the caller had been drinking alcohol before he called the police. The police concluded there was “no evidence a crime was committed.”

Someone suspected a vehicle of poaching and worried the alleged poachers might have infrared equipment and silencers. The vehicle was seen driving down the road, stopping to turn its lights off and then driving further.

A woman set off a burglary alarm for the fifth time in one month at a residence.

A woman saw intruders in her home on her surveillance camera while she was out of the state. The black-clad burglars apparently took off running and the KPD suspected someone they saw running down Foys Lake Road. This suspect turned out to simply be an “early-morning jogger.”

A man was concerned because he “could see a truck driving around his property” and he thought “it look[ed] like they were scoping things out.” He went out in his own vehicle with a rifle to look for the suspicious truck and insisted he had to get off the phone with the 911 dispatcher in order to proceed with his search. It turned out his neighbor had purchased a new truck that the amateur sleuth didn’t recognize.

A woman in Whitefish had apparently yelled at people repeatedly to “get off her mountain.” People who encountered her said she yelled profanities at them and then drove off “at a high rate of speed” on the wrong side of the road with her hazard lights on.

A man claimed his ex-girlfriend’s new boyfriend threw a hatchet at his truck when he went to pick her up for Thanksgiving. However, the boyfriend said she had texted the ex not to pick her up, and her current boyfriend had actually come out of the house with a hammer. He also clarified he “never raised it or threatened [the ex] with it.” When the police confronted the ex with this version of events he said, “never mind … drop it.”

An “impatient” driver passed another vehicle in the center turn lane, then slowed down in front of the other vehicle. Later, the impatient driver was reportedly driving behind the other driver and tailgated her, so she wanted to file a complaint with the police.

Someone called the police to report children on a frozen pond. It turned out there were adults present with the children, so the police determined, “adults can make the decision if the ice [was] dangerous or not.”
