While en-route to the call, officers were notified that the suspect, later identified as Antonio Landeroz, 19, of Cheyenne, had fled the scene in his mother’s black Nissan.
Upon arriving at the scene, officers located the victim, Landeroz’s mother, who had sustained life-threatening injuries. American Medical Response (AMR) began treatment for multiple stab wounds and transported her to Cheyenne Regional Medical Center (CRMC). Her condition is unknown at this time.
