A hunched-over man with a walker was allegedly hitchhiking very close to the highway and someone was concerned he “may have escaped from a home.”

A man wearing a leather vest and black bandana was reportedly trespassing in a big box store and yelled at an employee on his way out. Kalispell Police Department was asked to advise the man of his lifetime ban.  

A motel employee allegedly saw two males jump over a fence into the dumpster.

Someone called officers to follow up on a report about a man following them, alleging he was at a business sitting in a gold SUV with no license plates, watching. The vehicle was gone by the time officers arrived. 

Naloxone was administered to an unconscious man in the parking lot who was bleeding out of his mouth and might have been overdosing.

A barefoot woman wearing sunglasses and a hoodie reportedly threw her belongings down the stairs, crying, and refusing to leave a location. The caller, who refused to provide their name, claimed she had warrants out.

Locks on drop boxes were allegedly snipped off with one box open. 

A welfare check was requested for a man on a bench who was coughing and fell sideways.

Someone allegedly tried to use a phone that had been run over by a car and it auto-dialed 911. Officers were unable to locate the damaged phone and its user.

Officers received a call from a tenant complaining the landlord was harassing her and shut the water off. Her call was later followed by the landlord’s, who stated he had to turn the water off because there was a leak and she “freaked out and called the cops,” which made him angry.
