Law rounddup: Dog doesn’t get a pass for good behavior
A Bernese mountain dog wearing a GPS fence collar reportedly spent the afternoon at the middle school. Despite having good behavior on school grounds, the well-behaved dog was taken to the pound for processing.
A passerby at Dry Bridge Pond reportedly saw a man on the ground in the parking lot, “tweaking out of his mind” next to a vehicle with an open door, telling the Kalispell Police Department that his eyes were rolling around, but it didn’t look like a seizure.
The man reportedly declined medical treatment and was nodding off as he answered officers' questions, telling them he had smoked fentanyl. An officer asked for his and another individual’s consent to search a vehicle where drug paraphernalia was visible. Nothing of evidentiary value was allegedly found and both parties were released with officers ensuring the pair had Narcan in case his symptoms worsened and discussed treatment options.
A tenant allegedly told the front office that a woman came in looking for a bathroom and when she was told there weren’t any public restrooms, went outside and urinated in a bush. She was reportedly with a man, and both were being loud and hanging around an alley by a bluish-gray truck with a large camper.
Two collarless Chihuahuas were allegedly dumped on a corner. A woman, who said she was unable to get them into her car, was advised that the shelter was full and if she picked them up, she would be responsible for caring for them.
