News from Flathead County

Here's the police blotter from the Flathead Beacon. These sorts of things make the news in Flathead County, Montana.

9:24 a.m. A local man was upset that someone flipped the bird at him so he called 911.
10:26 a.m. A Martin City woman who lives between the town’s two bars said she was sick and tired of people fighting each other in front of her house.
10:57 a.m. A local resident’s phone was stolen in East Glacier Park.
11:01 a.m. A local man found his bike that had been stolen from McDonald’s the previous night.
11:21 a.m. A motorhome in Bigfork burst into flames.
12:13 p.m. A dog was reportedly locked in a hot Jeep parked “in the middle of nowhere.”
12:28 p.m. A landlord-tenant dispute was getting “aggressive” in Columbia Falls.
12:42 p.m. A Hungry Horse man found his stolen bike.
2:14 p.m. A man running heavy equipment called 911. The dispatcher couldn’t hear what the man was saying and eventually the guy just hung up, leading the dispatcher to believe it was probably a pocket dial.
3:25 p.m. A Columbia Falls man reported that his ex-wife was causing trouble.
Apparently, crime is not a big priority here.

  1. 6:37 p.m. “Three kids were running amuck down at the high school.”
    It's not the running amuck that's the problem. The real problem is getting that muck started in the first place.

  2. Holy cow!! After years of not being able to post comments on your blog for some petulant Blogger reason, it looks as if I finally can! Aren't small towns wonderful?

  3. Heidi,

    I spotted your blog on a new visitors blog roll and yours caught my eye. Why? I live in East Tennessee. ;)

    Isn't it amazing how your pocket calls people? I'd rather hear about these silly low-keyed problems over real, scary issues that plague more populated areas of the country. Thanks for making me smile. That's always welcomed here. Have a furtastic day and if you like mewsic, then come hit the dance floor with me today!
