Montana Fugitive Arrested in Idaho

MISSOULA, Mont. (AP) — A 42-year-old man who failed to appear in court on charges he caused a disturbance at a Missoula hotel was taken into custody by a bail bond company after a standoff at a Wallace, Idaho hotel.

Michael Dell Babinski was booked into the Missoula County jail early Tuesday.

Chase Investigations owner Kelli Martin tells the Missoulian Babinski was taken into custody at about 2 a.m. Tuesday.

Babinski initially was arrested Saturday at the Hilton Garden Inn. He had been kicked out of the inn on Thursday for having a dog. On Saturday, prosecutors said he was again asked to leave and made threats. Officers say he was carrying several knives, a semiautomatic handgun, stun gun and pepper spray.

Babinski was released Sunday after posting bond on $50,000 bail.
