Wyoming man accused of threatening woman with gun, sword and crossbow
A 45-year-old Wyoming man was arrested after allegedly threatening a woman he accused of cheating on him with a gun, sword and crossbow. The case matters because the woman said he repeatedly threatened to kill her before she escaped and contacted law enforcement.
According to affidavits, the encounter took place on 10 October and was partly captured on a bedroom camera recording. The woman said she saw a bolt in the crossbow but could not tell if it was ready to fire; she escaped with the gun, then called police after locking herself inside. Ward is being held at Laramie County Jail, with bail set at $50,000, and was due in court on 21 October.
