Law roundup: Woman needs to put a hold on anger
An uncouth woman left a business after reportedly slugging an employee on the chin when she did not get what she wanted. Sluggo decided to take matters into her own hands when she was told she could not order items and put them on hold until July and “got nasty,” then struck the employee. The employee said she was not injured and did not want to pursue assault charges, however, she requested the Kalispell Police Department give the case report number to her supervisor if the customer returned.
Someone raised concerns after reportedly hearing that the word on the street was that an officer was being called “Conan the eater of puppies.”

A woman’s medication allegedly disappeared and she told officers she was living in an alley until an apartment opened up.

An elderly woman found standing by cash registers had reportedly been left at the grocery store by her grandson and she didn’t have a phone.
