Platte County

A 34-year-old Colorado woman is dead after crashing her scooter in Guernsey, Wyoming.

All lands in the Laramie Region that are owned or managed by the Wyoming Game and Fish Commission are under this ban.

Speed and driver inattention are being investigated as possible contributing factors.

Campfires are prohibited under the ban, but the use of self-standing grills is still permitted.

Grayrocks Reservoir, Cottonwood Draw and Wheatland Reservoir No. 1 will reopen for overnight camping at 8 a.m. this Friday.

Platte County Sheriff's Capt. David Russell told David Cain three times to put down the ax.

The deputy was placed on administrative leave, which is normal procedure.

The Platte County Attorney said there is no danger to the community.

The Wyoming Division of Criminal Investigation is investigating the case.

The Wyoming Highway Patrol has released more details about a fatal crash that shut down U.S. 26 west of Guernsey on Monday.
