Law roundup: Officers help man tighten his belt

Officers with the Kalispell Police Department briefly dabbled in tailoring after receiving multiple reports of a man walking around town struggling to keep his pants up. During the first indecent exposure call, officers found the man walking near a big box home improvement store. His pants were reportedly too large for him, but he was keeping them up. After the second call, this time originating near Grandview Drive, officers fashioned a makeshift belt for the man. 

Despite being told to hit the bricks, a tenant was still hanging around their former home, according to a local landlord. She hoped the police might convince him to leave. Officers recommended that she begin the formal eviction process in Flathead County Justice Court and suggested that he pack up and leave in the meantime.  

A different tenant phoned officers looking for help dealing with his landlord. He had a few complaints about his lease.
