911 calls from 10/31 to 11/9

Saturday, Oct. 31
- 12:52 a.m. – A woman reported to 911 an act of disorderly conduct as an “intoxicated male” tried to gain entrance to St. Luke’s Hospital to visit his son who was a current patient. I don’t think visiting hours have ever included the midnight hour, but you can’t fault the guy for the effort.
- 5:49 a.m. – A female caller advised dispatch that the same aforementioned male was spotted “smashed up” against the corner of the house “under the garbage” by their backdoor. The homeowner kindly complimented the drunk on his impressive Oscar the Grouch costume before requesting that he be on his way.
- 5:54 p.m. – A woman reported to 911 that she had just been beaten up by another female whom she also witnessed “beat an elderly man with a tire iron.” Wow ma’am, for everybody’s sake please layoff the horror movies.
- 8:08 p.m. – A Polson woman advised 911 dispatchers that her 8-year-old son had just told her that a black car pulled up by trick-r-treaters on 4th Avenue, and some kids jumped out of the car and stole candy from other children. A drive-by trick-r-treating jumping – now that’s a classy move. Whatever happened to just smashing a couple jackolanterns.
-10:50 p.m. – A Ronan mother called 911 to report that a “Ronan policeman is harassing her son.” The mom stated that the officer keeps tailing them and as her son is not a “trouble kid” she demanded they “pull off of him.” If you were wondering, the answer is yes – a mother’s word is above the law.

Sunday, Nov. 1
- 12:24 a.m. – A woman driving in the Arlee area called 911 to report that she believes someone is “following her.” She then added, “nevermind, it’s a cop,” and hung up.
- 1:56 a.m. – A man reported to 911 that his Adams Street home was currently being “egged.”
- 7:57 a.m. – A woman advised dispatchers that her “silver coin purse” was stolen from the South Shore Bar on Halloween.
- 9:04 a.m. – A clerk at Harvest Foods called 911 to report a man in their store who appears to be “on something.” They said the man “picks up an item, looks at it, and then puts it into his cart before removing it and placing it back on the shelves.” Now I say if a man not being able to make up his own mind is a crime – then somebody, for the love of Pete, please lock up Brett Favre and throw away the key.
- 10:26 a.m. – A man advised 911 dispatchers that his neighbor “egged his house and car.”

Saturday, Nov. 7
- 1:03 a.m. – A bartender at the South Shore reported to 911 a woman wearing a black coat and pink pants who is attempting to “breakout the main window in the bar.” The bartender updated dispatchers that the woman was now “punching her husband in the face” in front of the bar.
- 1:26 a.m. – A woman was reported to 911 sitting in a blue Chevy Malibu in the church parking lot below the high school “drinking a Mike’s Hard Lemonade.”
- 4:23 a.m. – A woman in the St. Ignatius area advised 911 dispatchers that for the past five minutes a blue-green Toyota Tercel following her has been trying to “pin her in” while she delivers the morning newspaper.

Sunday, Nov. 8
- 12:53 p.m. – A caller reported finding a bunch of syringes in an abandoned Polson apartment on the 400 block of 10th Avenue West.
- 2:27 p.m. – A man called 911 and reported a woman passed out in a Dodge Neon with her legs hanging out an open door and “a lot of clothes and items all around the car.” Turned out the woman was just cleaning her car which must double as a closet and/or home.
- 2:32 p.m. – A woman reported to 911 a “crazy person screaming at the tops of his lungs” out by the highway and Les Schwab. An officer checked in with the man who wasn’t under the influence but was apparently “10-96”: police code for having mental problems.
- 6:48 p.m. – Marijuana was reportedly found in the Polson Town Pump parking lot.

Monday, Nov. 9
