Law roundup: Man encouraged to finish sleeping it off

After a silver Subaru station wagon with out-of-state plates had taken up a spot in the parking lot for the third consecutive day, a church employee phoned the Kalispell Police Department. They said that at last glance, there was a person lying down in the backseat. When officers arrived, they found a man getting out of the back and hopping into the front seat. After unsuccessfully cracking the window, the would-be motorist opened the door and explained he had been out drinking the night before and had fallen asleep in his vehicle. Officers warned him against trying to drive until he finished sobering up.   

Officers cited two individuals after a maintenance man discovered they had broken into a building with their dogs. They also banned the pair and their canines from the property.  

A dumpster diver seemingly made his last splash in a local business' trash pile. The manager told the police that he had repeatedly asked the man to stop going through the dumpster to no avail and wanted him banned from the premises. He agreed to phone back when the man, who usually appeared once or twice a week, showed up again.
