"Due to the nature of the call, there was a heavy law enforcement presence in the area," Farkas said in a news release Wednesday afternoon.

"This operation was pre-planned and extra precautions were taken to ensure the safety of everyone in the area," she added.

Farkas says Girone and Hampton were booked into the Laramie County Detention Center for possession of a powdery substance and Perry was booked for possession of methamphetamine and an active warrant.
