POLSON – A 33-year-old Polson man faces three counts of impersonating an officer after multiple reports of him “patrolling” Flathead Lake. 

The Lake County Sheriff’s Office said Ryan Lowden was cited following an Aug. 10 search of his home that revealed Coast Guard clothing. 

LCSO said a man was posing as a Coast Guard officer and taking enforcement action against boaters. 

Lowden is scheduled to make an initial appearance in Lake County Justice Court on Wednesday, Aug. 16.
