Monday, June 15
• 11:47 a.m. — A man reported to 911 that there appears to be an adult male sleeping under the swingset at O’Malley Park with only a “pair of pants on.” Polson officers confirmed that the man is fine as he is just “reading a book in the park.”
• 2:13 p.m. — A man called 911 and reported that a girl is running around “half naked and drunk” at the Lake View Village Apartments. The caller advised dispatchers it was “the one with that wolf that threatened me”, adding that the girl is “slobbering drunk and scaring the little kids.”
The man called back and stated that they are screaming and throwing water as they are having a water fight, and are drunk as they have cans of beer. Polson officers confirmed that the incident was strictly a “water fight” and just some kids having “some summer fun.”
• 11:42 p.m. — A man reported to 911 that someone is throwing “snow balls” towards his back windows of his residence. The man went on to agree with dispatchers that it could not be “snow” as it was not snowing out, but “something like that.” He advised that whatever the are throwing sounds hard enough to break the window.

Tuesday, June 16
• 8:01 a.m. — A woman called 911 and advised that she went out looking for some horses this morning and got lost as she does not “have her glasses with her.”

Wednesday, June 17
• 5:58 a.m. — An employee of the Ronan Golf Course called 911 and reported that vandalism was done to their club house beverage cart as it appears someone tried to “hot-wire the cart.” The stop sign in the parking lot was also reported to be broken down, possibly a result of kids doing “broadies” in the parking lot.
• 2:59 p.m. — A woman called 911 and reported that a piece of wire on her gate that kept the fence shut is missing and was taken by “the cops.” The woman added that her gate will not stay shut now.
• 4:09 p.m. — A man called 911 and requested that an officer come pick him up as his wife “was in jail and he wanted to go to jail as well.” The man threatened that if he was not picked up “something bad was going to happen.”

Thursday, June 18
• 3:13 p.m. — A woman called 911 to report a burglary at their Woods Bay home. Not 40 minutes later the reporting party called back requesting an ambulance as the burglar returned to the residence and had been severely injured by the homeowner’s 165-pound Bullmastiff, giving new meaning to “taking a bite out of crime.”
• 6:55 p.m. — The earlier woman who reported her gate issue called back to 911 to report that her car wouldn’t start.
• 7:27 p.m. — The same woman called 911 again and stated that she wanted an officer to go to “that store on Main Street that sells batteries” and bring her “one.” Dispatchers told the woman that if she called Napa they could bring her a car battery.
The woman replied that she is 86 years old and hoped “they” would get to be 86 years old as they would then know “what hell is like” because it is “hell to live in Polson.”

Friday, June 19
• 12:02 a.m. — An intoxicated male was reported “relieving himself” behind Community Bank in Ronan and was given a verbal warning about “urinating in public.”
