Good morning, Cheyenne. Here's your local news at a glance for Saturday, the 17th of May.

COMMUNITY NEWS

  • On Friday, several doctors left Cheyenne Regional Medical Center over staffing problems while ICE agents in Casper prepared to make arrests and a Natrona County suspect made odd dog noises in court—Cheyenne Starbucks workers also refused a new dress code amid a national strike. Other local news shows a lawsuit against a state official, a renewable energy project that may bring over $1.7 billion in private investment, and an 11-year-old grizzly killed in Yellowstone after repeatedly raiding food bins.  Cowboy State Daily
  • The Cheyenne Animal Shelter is offering an event that lets you choose a donation for adopting cats, dogs and small animals from today until Sunday. Adoption hours are 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. daily (with the last meet-and-greet starting at 5:30 p.m.) and all adopted animals will be spayed or neutered, microchipped and given the proper shots.  KING FM

CRIME NEWS

  • The Laramie County Sheriff's Office is searching for 15-year-old runaway Karmen Warsaw, who was last seen at 2 p.m. on May 14 near apartment 1006 at Lexington Hills, 514 Desmet Dr — she was wearing a black jacket, jean shorts, and black and white Converse shoes and is described as 5-foot-6 with brown eyes and brown hair that may have red dye.  KING FM

GOVERNMENT NEWS

  • The Interior Department announced a new oil and gas leasing process that cuts review time to six months—along with alternative expedited environmental reviews—and Rep. Hageman passed a bill to speed up the appeals process for denied projects. The policy changes aim to boost energy development on public lands even as proposed rescissions for renewable projects and ongoing litigation leave some future installations uncertain.  Cowboy State Daily
  • The Cheyenne Police Department announced that Lt. Adam DeBall graduated today from the School of Police Staff and Command at Northwestern University Center for Public Safety—an intensive 22-week leadership program attended by 20 officers.  106.3 Cowboy Country
  • Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon has ordered the state flag to be flown at half-staff at the Capitol in Cheyenne and in Laramie County on Monday, May 19 to honor former Representative Rodney Anderson who served from 1993 to 2010 and died on April 26. The flag will be lowered from sunrise to sunset—while all other flags remain at full-staff.  Cap City News
