Law roundup: Ex-girlfriend takes the money and runs

A man reportedly gave an ex-girlfriend $1,100 to buy a truck she was supposed to deliver to a location but instead “ghosted” him. He told the Columbia Falls Police Department that he heard she ran the same scheme on others.

An extra patrol was requested by an unhappy parent whose 13-year-old was allegedly staying with his father but spending nights going to her house and lighting Roman candle fireworks by the windows.

A property manager was startled by a “blood-curdling scream” coming from an apartment where a man was heard yelling at a woman.
