 | New fire district to cover Frannie, Deaver areas |
 CODY, Wyo. - After more than three years of working to establish a new fire district, residents in Frannie, Deaver and surrounding areas should be covered next month under the newly formed Big Horn County Fire District No. 5.
The area had previously been part of Park County Fire District No. 1, with firefighters from those communities working with others from Powell to respond to calls, but a rift three years ago led to the formation of the new district.
The board of Park County Fire District No. 1 had voted in September 2005 to close the Frannie fire station, citing concerns over liability from a lack of qualified firefighters from the station responding to calls.

| Troopers seize 167 pounds of marijuana |
GILLETTE - Troopers with the Wyoming Highway Patrol have seized 167 pounds of marijuana during a traffic stop.
A trooper stopped a 24-foot long rental truck on Interstate 90 about 6 miles east of Gillette on Friday. According to a statement from the patrol, the trooper called for a drug-sniffing dog from the Campbell County Sheriff's Department after the truck driver produced a forged passport document from Mexico and didn't have a driver's license.
Officers found 158 sealed bags of high-grade marijuana hidden in a false wall that had been built inside the truck. The driver remains in custody and the investigation into the source and destination of the drugs is continuing.

A Florida deputy get into hot water as a result of his alarm clock idea. No more freedom of expression in the Seattle parks if it includes bare butts. I am going to run from you now. Could you hold my driver's license? A Wisconsin cop is pissed off. Will a mule deer Tase? A day in the life of a Flathead County, Montana deputy. No money available for your robbery?

| CopCAST Episode 96 - The Rooster |
This week Morgan was able to stop packing for his trip to the IACP conference in San Diego long enough to do the show. Mack did a good job pulling himself to the microphone, which is more than he can say for that charity tug of war he did this week. Rich found out that there is a four o'clock in the morning too as he started his midnight rotation. Fortunately, we were able to get together for another great show.
Apparently there were some unusual boulders in the streets of Boulder, Colorado but the cops "busted" them. The Dark Knight made sure that a dark Halloween stayed safe for trick or treaters. A Texas cop got credit for busting a car thief and got his truck back at the same time. A Pennsylvania man is busted twice in six hours for DUI. Talk about high tech! How about a GPS chastity belt? What would you do if someone made 7,000 emergency calls? We agree with you! Breaking into a police station and stealing cop stuff is not a good idea despite what that alcohol is telling your brain. This chicken rules the roost but not the cops.

| Toddler injured after being hit by car |
A 15-month-old boy went to the hospital with minor injuries after he was struck by a car in the Heights.
Shortly after 5 p.m., a Buick Skylark, driven by a 16-year-old boy, was eastbound on Wicks Lane when it crossed the center line into oncoming traffic, Billings Police Officer Robert Ellison said. A westbound motorist told police she honked at the Skylark as it came toward her. The vehicle continued in the wrong lane then swerved and struck a female jogger and her 15-month-old son at the north side of the intersection of Wicks and Picador Place, Ellison said.
The Skylark continued heading east for almost another block, drove through the front fence of a home on the northeast corner of the intersection, through its back yard and through the back fence. It came to a stop in the front yard of another home at the intersection of Wicks and Fantan Street, Ellison said.
