According to booking sheets, 27-year-old Austin Rene Aranda and 24-year-old Sydney Shay Cabrera were arrested around 8:30 p.m. on Monday, June 24, after a Laramie County Sheriff's deputy was dispatched to a physical disturbance with a gun.

The deputy says he spoke with Aranda, Cabrera, and their neighbors involved, and obtained probable cause to believe Aranda pointed a gun in the direction of his neighbors and Cabrera physically attacked a male, causing at least three scratches on his arms.

When deputies attempted to place Cabrera in investigative detention, she reportedly became uncooperative and resisted arrest.

She and Aranda were handcuffed and taken to the Laramie County Detention Center without incident.

Cabrera was subsequently charged with battery and interference with a peace officer - no injury, both misdemeanor charges, and made her initial appearance in Laramie County Circuit Court on Tuesday morning, June 25.
