dumpster

A Cheyenne man has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and felony child abuse in the 2021 death of a two-year-old Cheyenne boy whose body was found in a dumpster, prosecutors say.

Firefighters were called out on a report of a roll-off dumpster fire in the 2500 block of East 15th Street at 11:02 a.m., arriving at 11:08.

Cheyenne police are now recommending murder and aggravated child abuse charges against a 27-year-old Cheyenne man in the death of his girlfriend's 2-year-old son.

Police have yet to say whether a Cheyenne man they arrested Friday evening is believed to have been involved in the death of his girlfriend's son.
