A Marion man accused of leading law enforcement on a chase through Kalispell and along Montana 35 in the fall of 2022 earned a trio of suspended sentences in October.
Appearing before Judge Heidi Ulbricht in Flathead County District Court on Oct. 4, Jeffery George Armstrong Jr., 41, received six-month suspended sentences in the county jail for misdemeanor negligent endangerment, driving under the influence and resisting arrest. Ulbricht ordered all three sentences to run concurrently and credited Armstrong for 15 days of time served.
Prosecutors initially brought Armstrong up on a felony charge of criminal endangerment and a misdemeanor charge of resisting arrest following his Nov. 8, 2022 arrest near the intersection of Montana 35 and Montana 206.
