A woman breaking up with her boyfriend called the Kalispell Police Department, alleging he was calling the police to spread lies about her and he claimed she was also calling officers to lie about him when she walked into the room and started shoving him. Parties were separated.

A 10-year-old boy wearing slippers was purportedly spotted riding a motorcycle, westbound on Center Street, without a helmet and a passerby was concerned that he was not licensed to drive.

The driver of a maroon Ford Explorer reportedly almost hit a pedestrian in the crosswalk and then brake-checked and flipped off someone who called the police. The vehicle was last seen on Cemetery Road. 

A man and woman were heard arguing in Woodland Park by someone who told officers they had dogs with them and that she was screaming, “You’re killing them.” She rode a bike toward the park pavilion where officers made contact with her. Officers ticketed and released the man.

A mother and daughter allegedly got into an argument and the parent called the police when she wouldn’t leave her house. When the daughter and her boyfriend finally did leave, he allegedly picked up a water hose and sprayed her mother in the face on the way out. The couple reportedly had warrants out and officers said if they returned to call and they would arrest them.

A man sitting on a bench was allegedly screaming profanities “at the top of his lungs” and arguing with a man who gave up and left. Officers counseled the man on his behavior.

A woman in a public bathroom was allegedly kicking the walls and doors.

A man told officers he was parked at the top of Woodland Park Loop with the door propped open when a vehicle purportedly made a “sharp, abrupt move,” which he perceived as them trying to hit him intentionally, so he called the driver an “unsavory name” and told them to go ahead and hit him. Then, he started rambling about eight or nine alleged “attempts on his life” in the past year. The Jeep was unoccupied when officers got to the park.
