Law roundup: Bar employee tired of mixing it up with unruly woman

Frustrated at constantly being pestered by an unruly woman at his place of work, an employee of a bar turned to the Kalispell Police Department for help. He said she comes in on every shift to mess with him and at least once has gone into the kitchen to find him. On that occasion, he recalled, she started yelling and throwing tomatoes at him. While not fearful, he was plenty annoyed. He asked that officers ban her from the property the next time she came in to mix it up with him.
