Law roundup: A dream comes true for Kalispell woman

A woman, who wasn’t making sense, allegedly told a dispatcher she just woke up from a dream and was not sure what was going on, that it all might be a dream, but she heard “some drama.” She also mentioned something about leaves, noodles cooking and ended on, “I’ve got it under control.” 

A woman’s neighbor needed to dump his rotten attitude. He allegedly told her she can’t use the sidewalk to take her trash out and screams at her when she does. 

A grandma reportedly showed up at someone's home with a group of bikers and tried to break in to take a baby whose father was allegedly kicked out of the house for using drugs around the child. The alleged trespassers left, and it was unclear to officers if a bunch of bikers had been there or not.  

A man with scraggly hair tucked under a baseball cap was reportedly driving a silver Subaru while punching a child’s legs in the backseat. The child looked to be 3 or 4 years old to the person who called the police. 

A man in his 20s, who purportedly lives in a tree behind a church, was following a woman walking in the area. Officers located some belongings, but not Kalispell's Tarzan. 

Someone reportedly spotted their stolen bicycle at a restaurant across town from where it was taken at a hardware store. They confronted a man in his 50s about it and told officers he was briefly aggressive toward them and then left in a van headed toward a grocery store. 

A Washington resident allegedly purchased a vehicle at a local dealership and found a wallet, but employees told him to throw it away, which he didn’t want to do, and called the police. The alleged owner did not remember losing a wallet and did not wish to contact a stranger about it. He agreed to mail the wallet. 

A man and a woman in a van reportedly got into an argument. Pulling over, the woman got out and started unloading his possessions, kicking him out of the van. Before an officer could speak with her further, she said she needed to use the bathroom, declined police assistance, got into the van and left. The man stayed behind and went to a friend’s house. 

A child allegedly called officers, saying his mother was throwing things, yelling and threatening to hit their father and kick him out. When the dispatcher asked for the caller’s date of birth, the child said they didn’t know and exhaled “hard,” when a thud was heard and the call disconnected. Despite a language barrier, officers determined the mother threw things during a "panic attack.” All parties denied that anything violent occurred or voiced fear of each other. Officers counseled parties about the possibility of disorderly conduct charges if they had to return.
