The home at 145 Looking Glass Ave. was built for Pengelly by Operation Finally Home in 2012, after Pengelly and his wife lost their mobile home to a fire in 2011.

According an article in the Kalispell Daily Inter Lake at the time, Pengelly was still going through rehabilitation for the brain injury when Operation Finally Home surprised him with the house.

A representative of U.S. Sen. Jon Tester, D-Mont., was also on hand at the time to present Pengelly with replicas of the service medals the Army veteran had lost in the mobile home fire.

After the Tuesday afternoon shooting, the officers secured the woman and the other man and provided first-aid to Pengelly until medical personnel arrived, according to Nasset.

The woman was also taken to the hospital for evaluation, and later released.

The two officers have been placed on paid administrative leave, as per Kalispell Police Department policy, pending the results of an investigation by the Flathead County Sheriff’s Office.

Sheriff Chuck Curry said investigators were still on the scene Wednesday, but expected to wrap up their work inside the house by Wednesday afternoon.

Nasset said the officers will not be identified until the sheriff’s office completes its investigation.
