Argument over music preceded standoff, court docs say

The man arrested following a standoff in Kalispell over the weekend allegedly racked and leveled a shotgun at his girlfriend when she asked him to lower the volume of his music.

“Ask me to turn down the music again,” Nathaniel Everett Wood, 31, told his significant other with the gun pointed at her head just after midnight March 17, according to court documents.

Prosecutors on Monday filed a felony assault with a weapon charge against Wood as well as one count of misdemeanor obstructing a peace officer. Held in the county jail with bail set at $75,000, Wood is expected to appear before Judge Heidi Ulbricht on March 21 for his arraignment in Flathead County District Court.
