Law Roundup: Sheriff's vehicle crunched in grocery collision

Sep. 2 -- A T-bone collision involving a Flathead County Sheriff's vehicle and a Dodge flatbed truck was reported in front of a grocery store. There was reportedly heavy front-end damage to the deputy's vehicle and to the passenger side of the truck. The truck driver was allegedly up and walking and rode in the ambulance transporting the deputy to the hospital.

A man reportedly stole a 2003 silver Ford Explorer with black trim, with the owner's friend's dogs still inside. They said they thought the man was under the influence of fentanyl and methamphetamine. They also told officers they recently purchased the vehicle but hadn't registered it yet.

A man with the megaphone allegedly threatened another man with violence and used the megaphone to call him names. He reportedly refused to provide his name or phone number to police. Instead, he said if law enforcement didn't "handle it," he would do something that would send him to jail if he saw megaphone man again.

A man reportedly punched his girlfriend in the head, took her car and drove to a bar.

Someone parked next to a bunch of teens allegedly overheard them talking about how drunk they were and were racing a Mercedes, a Tesla, Audi and a motorcycle around a parking lot off U.S. 93 North.

The caller alleged that some of the teens were "falling down drunk" and that the Mercedes almost hit their wife while the driver of a Chevy Silverado almost hit them and yelled at them after noticing they were on the phone. Officers ticketed one teen for reckless driving and released him per his father's request, who wanted him to go straight home. Another driver's parents wanted their child to remain at the scene until they arrived to pick him up. He was released to his mother.
