Evergreen man charged with assault on a peace officer

An Evergreen man picked up a fourth active felony case in Flathead County District Court after allegedly threatening deputies with a knife during an April 17 disturbance call.

Jacob Willis Uhde, 25, is expected to appear before Judge Dan Wilson on May 16 for his arraignment on a single count of assault on a peace officer. He remains in the county jail with bail set at $232,000.

Deputies with the Flathead County Sheriff’s Office crossed paths with Uhde after responding to reports that he was breaking objects at his ex-girlfriend’s house and refusing to leave, according to court documents. The victim later told deputies that Uhde, aware that authorities were en route, had armed himself with a knife.
