By Christie Burns

The Kalispell Police and Flathead County Sheriff’s reports for Wednesday included the following:

7:32 a.m. A Foys Canyon resident called in because they couldn’t get their adult son to leave the house. Deputies picked him up and dumped him out at a store on First Avenue West.

9:19 a.m. Stray dogs were running around all on Cougar Trail in Whitefish.

11:17 a.m. A woman called in from Lake County to report “boyfriend problems.” She was directed to call authorities in Lake County.

11:45 a.m. A woman called in to say that a man just busted into her house and punched another woman staying with her. The man was arrested for burglary and assault. The victim did not require medical attention.

12:09 p.m. A trucker from Flathead Valley called from Arizona to say that he recently found out that his ex had been taking pictures of him and his friends. He doesn’t want to file a report he just wants deputies to talk to her.

12:17 p.m. A man called in after he attempted to deliver divorce papers to a resident on Good Country Road. Reportedly, the man knocked on the door and the resident yelled obscenities at him and slammed the door.

The man said he heard a shotgun being cocked and left.
