A 57-year-old Cheyenne man is behind bars after allegedly pulling a knife on a fellow veteran.

The family of Rylee McCollum appeared on Fox News Tuesday Morning to speak about their boy and, in doing so, Rylee's father Jim revealed that he opted not to meet with President Biden.

Following the news of his death, many of Wyoming's leaders offered their condolences to the McCollum family, including Senator John Barrasso and Congresswoman Liz Cheney.

Rylee McCollum, a Wyoming-born Marine, was one of the 13 U.S. soldiers who was killed in the suicide bombing at an Afghanistan airport in the country's capital of Kabul.

People from nine states watched the ceremony on a live stream from a camera set up by Bustard's Funeral Home.

The interest in the late 101-year-old Casper Marine Ray Barela has gone nationwide.

Little is known about Ray Barela's service or life, but 99% of Marines during World War II were in the South Pacific.
