Law roundup: Person threatened with ‘curb stomping’

The Flathead County Sheriff’s Office received a report of someone reportedly threatening to show up at a Columbia Falls property to “curb stomp and slit” someone’s throat.  

A man in Columbia Falls allegedly went over to a neighbor’s and socked him in the face, “beating him down” so he could not get away. The neighbor told deputies he didn’t know the man.  

A security guard was reportedly assaulted by shoplifters running out of a Kalispell store when one man charged at the guard, driving his shoulder into him and they hit the ground. The guard allegedly grabbed onto the miscreants’ vehicle as they were leaving, then chased it before going back inside. The guard declined medical attention.
