Suspect Arrested For Reckless Driving, Eluding

Police say Kyler Dunn was booked into the Laramie County Detention Center on charges of Reckless Driving and Eluding. Under Wyoming Law, Reckless Driving is a misdemeanor carrying potential penalties of up to six months in jail and/or a $750 fine. Eluding is also a misdemeanor carrying the same potential penalties, but if it involves bodily injury or significant property damage, it can escalate into a felony with higher fines, a longer prison sentence, and possibly a driver's license suspension.

Police spokeswoman Alex Farkas says the crash is being investigated by the Wyoming Highway Patrol.
