After an intensive investigation, the Missoula County Attorney's Office has decided not to charge a Missoula man with homicide after a ‘drug rip’ went bad in the restroom of a local restaurant where a Hamilton area man was stabbed and eventually died of his wounds.
Missoula County Attorney Kirsten Pabst revealed a major drug bust that occurred in the past week while sharing the crime report on KGVO’s Friday morning Talk Back program.
Some weeks the Missoula County Attorney’s office can see upwards to 20 or more serious felonies, but this week brought a brief respite with about half that amount.
From the charging documents, the whole story of Thursday night's shooting spree that left one man dead and three gravely injured, including Montana Highway Patrol Trooper Wade Palmer.
