Soldiers in Cheyenne hold-up and flight across Colorado
Three soldiers, Stanley Carroll and Kargus, confessed to abducting driver Failer after an assault near Fort Russell. They fled 400 miles through Colorado to near the Nebraska line, with reported robbery motives unclear as Failer lies gravely injured. Evidence shows the trio aimed to desert the army and steal an automobile to escape, while small cash was found on Failer and the group had limited funds.
