Failure to Maintain Lane Leads to Arrest of Wanted Cheyenne Man

A 46-year-old Cheyenne man was arrested following a traffic stop north of Cheyenne last week after being found to have two felony warrants.

Traffic Stop

According to a booking sheet, a Wyoming Highway Patrol trooper was patrolling near mile marker 21 on U.S. 85 at 1:44 p.m. on Tuesday, March 4, when she stopped Corey Lee Williams for failing to maintain his lane of travel.

Felony Warrants

When the trooper ran Williams's information, she discovered he had a warrant out of Laramie County for felony theft, a crime punishable by up to 10 years in prison, up to a $10,000 fine, or both.

Circuit Court Judge TJ Forwood signed the warrant.

The trooper says Williams also had a felony warrant out of Aurora, Colorado, for forgery.

Williams was arrested without incident and taken to the Laramie County Detention Center, where he was booked on his warrants.
