Law roundup: Shoplifter allays fear with knife

Flathead County Sheriff’s Office received a report that a man allegedly “popped open” a knife when employees tried to stop him from shoplifting in the parking lot and said, “Don’t worry, I have a knife.”  

A man who was allegedly fired returned to the business on the same day and threatened to kill an employee in Hungry Horse.

A scared woman reportedly jumped out of a car and ran into a casino after her boyfriend, who was in the vehicle drinking, beat her.
