standoff

In the early morning hours of February 3, 2022, SWAT officers with the Cheyenne Police Department rescued the woman and arrested Beecher at the motel.

The post says drug use is being investigated as a possible factor.

A 34-year-old Larimer County man is behind bars after allegedly assaulting an at-risk adult, several sheriff's deputies, and a police K9 in addition to barricading himself inside a home.

A man claiming to be the father of the suspect in Friday night and Saturday morning's standoff with local law enforcement has reached out via social media to both apologize to and thank officers for how they handled that tragic situation.

He was later booked into the Larimer County jail on charges including reckless endangerment, felony menacing, and prohibited use of a weapon.

The Natrona County Sheriff's Office, as well as the Casper Police Department and the Natrona County Special Response Team are onsite, assisting with the active investigation.

Sheriff Mike Linder says 33-year-old Dennis Gresham of Sheridan, Wyoming died of multiple gunshot wounds.

Officers pursued Gresham through a neighborhood and he ended up hiding in an attic.

The affidavit also states that the woman told police she waited to report the incident because she feared Carbajal.

Several nearby homes were evacuated during the standoff.
