Police say the front door appeared to be kicked in, as the center of the door was broken into the apartment, and splinters of the door and frame were inside the apartment.

Norman reportedly told police that she had gone to the apartment to get a computer from "J," later identified as John Estrada, and was knocking on the door and yelling for Estrada, but he wouldn't come to the door and a male named "Bill" kicked the door in.

Police say Estrada told them that Norman came to the apartment and began banging on the door yelling for him, and that as he approached the door, the door was kicked in and Norman was standing in the doorway by herself.

He said Norman then walked into the apartment and started assaulting him.

Police say Crystal Parker, who was at the apartment, told them that she saw Norman kick in the front door, walk into the apartment, and begin to assault Estrada.

Norman was arrested and subsequently charged with felony unlawful entry and misdemeanor property destruction.

She made her initial appearance in Laramie County Circuit Court on Monday morning, Jan. 29, during which her bond was set at $3,000 cash and her preliminary hearing was scheduled for Feb. 7 at 1:30 p.m.

Norman was also served Monday morning with a Circuit Court warrant for probation violation on original charges of possession of a controlled substance -pills and misdemeanor theft.
