Subject: RE: BS: Funny Police Reports in your home town
* A woman was issued a citation at about 1:30 a.m. for camping out on a couch at North 5th Avenue and Hemlock Street.

* A man with an off-leash dog on North 19th Avenue was warned after the ball he was throwing for the dog went out into the street causing the dog to follow after.

* While a parking officer was issuing a person a ticket, the person drove off and struck the officer. The officer was not injured and the person was cited for reckless driving.

The Gallatin County Sheriff's Office reports for Tuesday included the following:

* A man and a woman in an SUV hit two barrels and almost struck flaggers in a construction area near Big Sky Spur and Gallatin roads. When stopped by a person in the area, the SUV driver swore and said he "could do whatever he wanted."

(That's one of the roads to Yellowstone Park).

* A man provided information on a scam in which he was told a person would meet him to hand over a large sum of money. The man never showed.

* A man reported an abandoned car behind his residence on Andrea Drive. He asked if the car was stolen and whether he could drive it.

* Loud noises were reported near Penwell Bridge around 10 p.m. The person reporting the noise said it sounded like someone might be blowing up beaver dams.
