Cheyenne Fire & Rescue

Cheyenne Fire Rescue says a Tuesday afternoon fire in the 200 block of West 6th Street remains under investigation, and a cause and damage estimate have not yet been determined.

Deputies with the Laramie County Sheriff's Office are being credited for saving the life of an inmate who was suffering from a drug overdose.

Cheyenne Fire Rescue has been awarded a Staffing for Fire and Emergency Response grant through the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

A burn victim was found about a block away and was transported by ambulance for evaluation and treatment.

The blaze was eventually traced to a bathroom fan.

The occupants of the home were given temporary housing by the Red Cross. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.

A 41-year-old transient is facing thousands of dollars in fines after allegedly setting multiple fires in downtown Cheyenne.

Cheyenne Fire Rescue saw a 10% decrease in calls for service in 2021 compared to 2020, according to an annual report released Wednesday.

They had to cut a hole in the ceiling to reach the fire, and the home was damaged by the fire as well as water and extinguishment activities.

The people in the home were alerted by a working smoke detector and were able to get themselves and their animals out of the building without injury.

Cheyenne police were able to talk a suicidal man out of jumping off of a bridge and hanging himself Saturday morning.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation, according to the release.
