Flathead Valley man allegedly drew weapon following argument with ex

A Batavia man accused of leveling a gun at his ex-partner, her son and a relative during an argument earlier this month pleaded not guilty to a felony charge last week.  

Peter C. Grigg, 58, faces one count of assault with a weapon in Flathead County District Court following the Dec. 5 confrontation at a home near U.S. 2 West in Batavia. He was arraigned before Judge Amy Eddy on Dec. 12.  

Grigg's ex told Flathead County Sheriff's Office deputies, who responded to the home about 7:42 p.m., that the confrontation arose after they argued over text while he was at work. She remembered telling him not to come to the house that night and instead stay at a hotel, according to court documents.
