A man alleged that he was jumped, beaten and fell. He told Kalispell Police Department officers his cell phone and pills were stolen while he was unconscious on the ground. After talking to the night shift, officers learned that medics checked out the man who was extremely intoxicated at the time and fell, knocking himself out. Officers called his phone and it went straight to voicemail. There were no suspects or way to corroborate the man’s story.

A parent called the police because their 22-year-old and 19-year-old sons were reportedly pulling each other’s hair and pushing each other. A man reportedly paid for items using a fake $100 bill that said “prop money” on it.

A man allegedly threatened to kill another man over the phone.

Someone reportedly purchased a four-wheeler and was given a bill of sale but wanted confirmation from police that it was not stolen.

A man allegedly swerved and almost hit another vehicle then turned around and followed the vehicle into a parking lot where he started yelling obscenities, saying he was going to turn them in. 

Officers stickered a notice to a Jeep for expired registration and stickered an RV for being unattached after receiving a complaint that someone was living in it.

A woman’s purse, which contained her wallet and pain medication, was reportedly stolen from her unlocked vehicle. 

A man reportedly said he was getting a gun from a pawn shop and made threats to start shooting people at a legal office and medical facility if they didn’t do what he said. He was taken to the hospital for a mental health evaluation.

Dispatchers called a phone number from a 911 hangup and a man said everything was OK and hung up again. On the second callback, he voiced suspicions about a man driving a maroon Camry with a magnetic sign that stated “security” but he didn’t see any company name on the sign or the driver’s uniform. The man was a security employee.
