Good morning, Cheyenne.
A 19-year-old Cheyenne man was arrested on charges of second degree murder after deputies responded at 12:14 a.m. on June 13 at 505 Williams Street in unincorporated Laramie County for the fatal shooting death of 18-year-old Ryan Snow following a reported disagreement (anyone with information is asked to call Detective Corporal Dudley at 307-633-4726).

The Laramie County School District 1 Board of Trustees meets today at the Storey Gym Boardroom and via Zoom to review proposed meal price increases for the next school year and contracts including a multimillion dollar insurance package and school resource officers.
