Good morning, Missoula. Here's your local news at a glance for Saturday, the 26th of April.

CRIME NEWS

  • At about 5:05 p.m. on April 22nd, a Missoula officer responded to a report of a stolen vehicle seen leaving an Albertsons parking lot—witnesses said the car later collided with another while speeding erratically, leading to the arrest of 38-year-old Damien NoRunner who now faces charges of felony theft, felony criminal endangerment, and aggravated DUI.  Newstalk KGVO

ECONOMY NEWS

  • A UC Davis study showed Montana ranchers lost up to $162,000 because cattle near wolf packs became stressed and did not gain enough weight for auction—data from summer 2022 revealed that 86% of wolf scat samples contained cattle DNA, confirming the high cost of wolf presence. Ranchers report that the ongoing pressure from wolves forces them to adjust herd management and incur extra financial losses.  Newstalk KGVO

GOVERNMENT NEWS

  • The legislature passed House Bill 267—Bobby’s Law, which creates a charge of aggravated vehicular homicide under the influence that mandates a minimum three-year sentence and a $10,000 fine, and the bill has been sent to Gov. Gianforte who is expected to sign it.  Missoula Current
  • Mayor Davis said during Friday’s City Talk that the city will use a housing sprint to reduce Johnson Street Shelter beds by 30 per month to help around 125 residents find permanent housing and needed services. She explained the program requires about $2,000 per person to overcome financial barriers—an effort that is part of a plan to raise $400,000 in total.  Newstalk KGVO
