CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) — A shooting on a street in Wyoming’s capital has killed one man and wounded two others. The shooting happened around 2 p.m. Thursday in a residential area near restaurants and offices about a mile from the state Capitol. Cheyenne Police Department spokeswoman Alexandra Farkas says investigators aren’t sure yet what led to the shooting and who the victims were, including whether those wounded were adults. The shooting did not involve police, who declared the scene safe soon after. Safety measures but no lockdowns were put in place at two nearby elementary schools. The state Legislature continued to meet at the Capitol without interruption.
