Newcastle

When I moved to Cheyenne, WY back in January, a common theme I would hear from a lot of people was how great the people here are. It's held true already, and this past weekend, I experience it first hand.

Authorities believe two inmates who escaped from the Wyoming Honor Conservation Camp in Newcastle Sunday night may be in a stolen city truck.

The Wyoming Highway Patrol says the accident occurred about 11:25 a.m. on U.S. 85.

Cold air funnels can stir up some gusty winds, but are usually short-lived.

Prosecutors agreed to dismiss a second count of aiding and abetting the passing -- legally called "uttering" -- counterfeit money.

James Watkins told a U.S. Secret Service agent that he alone printed the counterfeit bills, and he had been counterfeiting for several years.

Some of the confiscated counterfeit bills had identical serial numbers.

The seat belt system in the pickup had been completely removed at some point before the crash.

One of Wyoming Refining's primary downstream markets is the Rapid City, S.D., metropolitan area with its nearby national parks and monuments.

Laura Chord was wearing her seat belt but died at the scene.
