Law roundup: Woman wants cops to talk to alleged gossip

A woman wanted a Kalispell Police Department officer to counsel an allegedly menacing neighbor. They purportedly became hostile toward her when she confronted them about whispering with another neighbor, believing they were talking about her.

A man reportedly tried using an electronic benefits transfer (EBT) card and couldn’t get it to work, telling an employee he didn’t know the pin because the card wasn’t his. The employee told him, “Well, if it’s not yours you shouldn’t have it or be trying to use it.” He took the card, got in a vehicle and left. 

At least five people camping near the back entrance of a museum were allegedly using the building’s outlets and stealing electricity. The group was kicked off the property and one man was advised of his warrants.
