A Kalispell woman was surprised when a stranger tried the knob to her front door and even more surprised when she checked the camera footage and caught sight of bigfoot at her doorstep. She told the Kalispell Police Department that she suspected it was a young man wearing a Sasquatch mask. No word on whether he ever found the Hendersons. 

A woman told authorities she believed someone was stalking her. 

Another woman told the police that the same man routinely walked by her workplace and suspected he was stalking her. After she provided them with a photo, the officers recognized the individual. They let her know that he lived around the corner from her job site and was often seen walking in the area. When she said he had once tried to open the door to her van, officers recommended that she call them if it happens again and to tell the man to stay away if he ever approached her. 

Officers let an individual know they had been banned from a hotel and auto parts store.

Authorities encouraged a man to move his vehicle from its curbside parking spot after a property owner reported it being parked there for the past two weeks. The property owner suspected the man was living in the vehicle and claimed he had refused their suggestions to leave and even threatened to kill an employee. 

Investigators tracked a stolen gun down to a Columbia Falls pawnshop. 

Noticing that their neighbors were up at all hours of the night and often working on vehicles in the early morning hours, a resident told the police that she suspected they were dealing drugs. 

Officers let a woman know she was banned from a local bank after she allegedly screamed out front and made an obscene gesture at an employee. 

A motorist suspected someone tried to siphon gas out of the tank of their car after discovering that the gas flap was broken. 

A man reported the theft of two guns stolen from his son’s vehicle in the past three weeks. 

Officers investigated reports of a woman either drunk or sleeping on a bike path. 

Authorities looked into the reported theft of appliances from an apartment building still under construction. 

After misplacing his AirPods at a Kalispell hotel, a man tracked the devices to a particular address and called the police to go over his options.

The staff of a medical facility asked for police help after a patient showed up possibly drunk and acting disorderly. 

A falling out between a pair of friends didn’t sit well with one of them. They allegedly made harassing phone calls to their ex-friend’s work. Officers attempted to contact the irate woman, but were unsuccessful. 

Someone reported an abandoned camper left parked on the street for around six weeks. When officers showed up to look into the report, they found the owner hooking it up to move it.
