Wyoming man Everett E. Conant III charged with killing 3 sons, brother
WHEATLAND, Wyo. — Residents of Wheatland, a quiet agricultural town in central Wyoming, plan a community barbeque to raise money for funeral expenses for victims of a shooting spree.
Authorities say a man opened fire inside a mobile home here Thursday night killing his three sons and a brother. The man's wife was wounded.
Mayor Jean Dixon says the killings are shocking to residents of Wheatland, a quiet, agricultural town of some 3,600.
Everett E. Conant III, who's in his mid-30s, surrendered without incident and was charged with first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, battery and a weapons violation.
Prosecutors say Conant could face the death penalty. His lawyer declined comment.
