Shocking Confrontation at Missoula Apartment Complex

Missoula, MT (KGVO-AM News) - On April 27, 2025, John Doe 1 heard the door to his apartment in the 1100 block of 34th Street open. He believed that the sound was caused by his brother, John Doe 2. However, Doe 1 walked to the window where he observed a male, later identified as 22-year-old Will McIntosh, standing outside of the apartment. Doe 1 asked Doe 2 if he had opened the door. Doe 2 stated, “No.” Doe 1 and Doe 2 walked around the apartment building to locate McIntosh.  

They returned to their apartment, entered, and found McIntosh trying to enter a bedroom. Doe 2 told McIntosh that he needed to, “Get the f**k out!” McIntosh stated that he was looking for a girl.  

McIntosh apologized and began to leave as Doe 2 guided him towards the stairs. McIntosh then stated that he needed to stay in the apartment. Doe 2 responded by pushing him towards the exit. McIntosh continued to alternate between apologizing and stating that he needed to stay.  

McIntosh wrestled with and tried to punch Doe 2. Doe 2 was able to push McIntosh out of the apartment. After being pushed out of the apartment, McIntosh “rushed” back at Doe 2. Doe 2 delivered a “front kick” to McIntosh. McIntosh tried to punch Doe 2, but Doe 2 was able to dodge his attempted blows. Doe 2 struck McIntosh with multiple punches, which finally caused McIntosh to cease his attempts to enter the apartment.  

Once outside, a verbal altercation ensued between Doe 1, Doe 2, and McIntosh. McIntosh charged Doe 1 and attempted to punch him. Doe 1 was able to dodge McIntosh’s punches and strike McIntosh, who dropped to the ground. 

Witness Calls 911 

A witness observed part of the incident and called 911. She stated that she was home in her apartment when she heard what sounded like a fight outside. She looked out her window and observed a physical altercation between two males. (McIntosh was later identified while wearing a white sweatshirt) She said the two males pushed the male in the white sweatshirt and yelled at him to “get out.”  

The male in the white sweatshirt then approached the two males and “swung” and attempted to punch one of them. She stated that the male turned to walk away but returned to try to punch one of the two men before leaving. She believed that the male in the white sweatshirt was highly intoxicated. 

McIntosh is Interviewed 

A Missoula Police Department officer responded and contacted McIntosh approximately one block from the location. McIntosh’s shirt was wet and dirty as if he had just been rolling around on the ground. His shorts were also wet. McIntosh’s eye appeared to be swelling up, and his lips were bloody. The officer also noted fresh blood inside McIntosh’s mouth. McIntosh declined medical attention. 

McIntosh told the officer that he had just moved to Missoula, and the apartments in the area all look the same. McIntosh stated he was waiting for a female to come over to his apartment, but because she took so long, he decided to go for a walk. McIntosh stated that he was walking around and two males, whom he did not know, told him to come up to their apartment. McIntosh stated he walked to the second floor and entered the house.  

When he entered, the unknown male in the apartment said he was in the wrong apartment and then told him to leave. McIntosh said he left the apartment, walked around to the back of the apartment, and entered through another door. McIntosh stated that he believed that it was a different apartment from the one he entered. When he entered, he was confronted again.
