Tales From The Alley: US Marshalls, GFPD & CMHR
She Was Really Quiet And Kept To Herself
Honestly, I'm not the neighbor that whips up a bunch of cookies when you move in and run over to your fence every time I see you outside. I'm not that person. I'm not a total biatch, it's just the older I get, the more I like, no LOVE, solitude. There is no way on this earth that I would ever share my home with anyone other than my children ever again.
The Weirdness Started Going Down In 2022
- In 2022 or so, the first story of my alley was how it was a place for appliances to go to die
- Earlier this year, the Garbage Nazi made her presence known
- About a month ago, people were dumping house loads of trash in the alley and leaving it for the city to clean up
October 8, 2024, I Go Home To My Alley And Street Being Completely Blocked
At about 4:30, I pull into my alley, and right before my garage is an unmarked police car.
(Before I get into what happened, you need to know that I can ONLY get to my house from THE ALLEY.)
I head to the other way into the alley, the ENTIRE STREET IS BLOCKED OFF.
For just over 2 hours, the alley was blocked, and me and all of my neighbors watched arrests going down in this duplex on the side street. My one neighbor that sees everything saw 5 or 6 people getting arrested. And when I say everything, I mean EVERYTHING. She had the best view in the place, and trust me when I say, nothing gets past her.
There were US Marshalls, GFPD and the Central Montana High Risk Unit. It. Was. Nuts.
Turns out the Garbage Nazi from my previous article (who is their direct next door neighbor) wasn't even allowed to go home until it was all over.
After The Police Left I Found Out What Happened
KRTV reported of a possible threat of an assault with weapons that happened by Great Falls High, and culminated in the duplex by my home. Apparently, someone in the duplex had outstanding warrants.
