Law roundup: Person talks turkey with police

Whitefish Police Department received a call from someone all aflutter, claiming an officer in a silver “K9 police car” tried to hit a turkey. And there’s no telling what they’ll try come Thanksgiving. 

A teen driver reportedly passed a man driving a gray Audi on Montana 40 and the man followed him. The man, who allegedly smelled like alcohol, got out of his car and grabbed the teen by the throat, telling him he was going to “teach him the rules.” An officer spoke to the teen and his mother, who said she would handle the issue at home and did not wish it to be investigated further.
