Law roundup: Opening locked door not as easy as butter

 A drunk man allegedly tried using a butter knife to break into a woman’s bedroom and then began screaming and slamming doors. He ran out the backdoor when she called the Flathead County Sheriff’s Office and yelled to him that she didn’t have his keys. He yelled back, “Good luck catching me, I’m going to Iowa.” He didn’t follow through and instead went to her room while she climbed out a window to wait in the driveway. 

Someone with restaurant reservations reportedly showed up at the location and found the doors unlocked but the lights were off, and no one was inside. An employee arrived to lock up. 

A man reportedly punched his partner in the head in Kalispell.
