📰 News we're reading
1. Man charged with attempted homicide after stabbing in Bozeman (fairfieldsuntimes.com) — Bozeman police arrested a man on Saxon Way after a roommate was stabbed and later charged with attempted homicide, with bond set at $500,000. The victim is expected to survive, and a SWAT team, Bozeman Fire, and other local agencies assisted during the early-morning standoff. 
2. New BSF headquarters a 'game changer' for Bozeman skiing (bozemandailychronicle.com) — Bozeman skiers now have a new 3,200‑square‑foot Bridger Ski Foundation headquarters on Gold Street, complete with public gear‑tuning space and in‑ground training trampolines. The community‑funded facility centralizes coaching, meetings, and youth programs, supports BSF's 90‑kilometer trail system, and still needs about $30,000 in donations to finish the project debt‑free.
3. A 50-year-old man charged with aggravated assault after incident at Bozeman homeless shelter (kbzk.com) — An incident at the Bozeman homeless shelter left one man seriously injured after he was allegedly yanked from a top bunk and fell headfirst about six feet. Doctors at Bozeman Health Deaconess say he may need a cane or walker permanently, and a 50-year-old man has now been arrested and charged with aggravated assault.
4. Behind the scenes at 'Montana's only dedicated in-person Pre-Anesthesia Clinic of its kind' (periopleader.com) — Bozeman residents preparing for surgery now have access to what's described as Montana's only dedicated in-person Pre-Anesthesia Clinic, run through Bozeman Health. The clinic carefully evaluates patients before their procedures to reduce risks, smooth recoveries, and improve overall outcomes, and its approach was recently highlighted in the Bozeman Daily Chronicle.
5. Planned Parenthood of Montana to open new clinic in Bozeman (fairfieldsuntimes.com) — Bozeman residents will soon have a Planned Parenthood health center in town, reducing the need to travel to Billings, Helena, Great Falls, or Missoula for reproductive care. The centrally located clinic will offer services including STI testing, birth control, gender‑affirming care, and abortion, and is expected to open in early summer 2027 amid both strong support and organized opposition.
