What Is the Missoula Police Blotter?
A police blotter is the official daily log of calls for service, arrests, and incidents handled by a law enforcement agency. The Missoula Police Department publishes a daily activity report — sometimes called a media log or call log — that records every significant incident officers responded to in Missoula.
Idaho Blotter receives these reports directly from participating agencies and uses AI to summarize them into plain-English entries that are easy to read and search. All records are public information under Idaho's public records laws.
