The Fergus County Sheriff’s Office responded to a ‘swatting’ incident at Central Montana Medical Center on Thursday afternoon.

A person called and told the hospital that they assaulted a child and were holding a wife and another child hostage.

CMMC alerted law enforcement and stayed on the phone where the caller admitted their name and that they lived in Bozeman

Authorities carried out a welfare check at a home in Bozeman, with the help of the Gallatin County Sheriff’s Office.

Law enforcement arrived at a vacant property that was listed for sale, and have since ruled the incident a “swatting” event.

Officials say other medical facilities have been targeted by similar calls.

The Fergus County Sheriff’s Office posted the following on Facebook:

While it’s been a minute since the Desperate Housewives star lived on Wisteria Lane, she’s since found a new address IRL.

“I had my whole adult life here,” Eva told Marie Claire in November 2024 about leaving Los Angeles. “But even before [the pandemic], it was changing. The vibe was different. And then Covid happened, and it pushed it over the edge. Whether it’s the homelessness or the taxes, not that I want to s–t on California—it just feels like this chapter in my life is done now.”

So for the past few years, the actress, her husband José Bastón and their son Santiago have split their time between Mexico and Spain.

“I’m privileged,” she continued. “I get to escape and go somewhere. Most Americans aren’t so lucky. They’re going to be stuck in this dystopian country, and my anxiety and sadness is for them.”

However, Eva noted her move wasn’t because of President Trump’s re-election.

“I didn’t leave because of the political environment,” the Flamin’ Hot director said on The View: Behind the Table podcast in November 2024. “I left because my work took me there since Land of Women—shooting six months in Catalonia, then four months in Mexico for Searching for Mexico, then back to Spain. Now I’ve been there for years. So I just don’t like that it’s politicized.”

Since moving, Eva has continued to stay busy, with recent projects including her roles in Only Murders in the Building and Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Road Trip.
