Law roundup: Stalking leaves couple feeling uncomfortable

| October 7, 2021 12:00 AM

A man called the Whitefish Police Department after a man driving a black car with New Jersey plates followed him and his wife home. The driver of the New Jersey vehicle then approached the man and told him that “God told him to follow them.” When the man asked the driver to leave, he did so in a peaceful manner. But the interaction left the husband and wife uncomfortable.

A man wearing a black cap, blue shorts and gray hoodie was seen staggering around for about an hour before he found a picnic table to rest on.

Someone reported several children between the ages of 5 and 10 were running around the park at night without adult supervision. When an officer responded, there were at least two adults with the kids and everything appeared to be OK.

A pedestrian called after smelling a foul, “dead” odor while walking near the train trestle. She was concerned it wasn’t just an animal because of the transient camps in the area. But an investigating officer determined the source of the odor was a dead deer.

A woman called to cancel any emergency services after her child pushed an emergency button in the vehicle while they were parked in the driveway.

A dispatcher heard a man talking about Americans and bad presidents during an accidental 911 call.

Someone reported a black bear with two cubs on Baker Ave., just north of a fitness center.

Another bear was seen going through trash cans. Fortunately, it was not acting aggressive.

Someone said it was too early for drivers to honk their horns at the protesters.

A woman said two 12-year-olds served her “the bird” after she yelled at them for driving their remote controlled cars on the street at speeds she said were too fast.

A vacationing Louisiana woman called to report an incident in which she and her fiance had argued while throwing dishes and other items at each other. She said when he came at her earlier, she “grabbed his testicles and twisted hard.” He later left in their rental car.

Someone reported kids were drinking inside two vehicles which were parked in front of her house. She said they were making a lot of noise and she was worried about them driving recklessly. When an officer stopped the vehicle, the driver’s blood alcohol level was 0.00.
