Law roundup: Woman blasts neighbor’s robust sprinkler

A woman alleged a neighbor was intentionally turning a sprinkler on at “full blast” to damage her fence and was “not paying for it.” She deemed the water output as being “unnecessary for the size of the yard.” She told a Kalispell Police Department officer she had, and would, consult a lawyer, understanding that law enforcement could not do much about the matter. It was a different matter, however, when she complained the neighbors came onto her property without permission.

A woman allegedly insisted her mother’s car was stolen rather than being a case of unauthorized use when she located it in front of a building and the man who was supposed to be working on it sitting inside.
