BILLINGS - The sight of flashing red lights and sirens around the Lazy KT Motel is pretty routine. You name it, it's probably happened there: murders, police standoffs and gun battles, drug dealing and prostitution. It seems the location had become a magnet for criminal activity. So, how did the Lazy KT come to be in the first place? Robert Taylor, a former manager there for 15 years, shares a story he was told.

The Big Horn County Memorial Hospital in Hardin received more than $10 million to renovate and expand. It's all about Montana's never-ending effort to provide quality health care to the state's rural communities. Ground was officially broken Wednesday evening on a more than $10-million project to expand and renovate the hospital in Hardin – with specific attention being paid to its emergency services. Just four years ago, on average, 150 people would use emergency room services at the hospital.

A local gun range brings state of the art technology to Billings in an effort to help better train those new to firearms and even seasoned veterans. Up until May 10, if you went to a gun range, you'd get a target, send it down range and start shooting. Basic target practice. At Black Butte Range, you can practice in much more dynamic scenarios. It's called TiTraining. It brings virtual moving targets to the range, giving shooters multiple situations to train with their firearm.
