Wyoming Sheriff Killed in Hunt for Outlaws
Wyoming officials report Sheriff W. G. Ricker of Natronal County was killed in a confrontation with outlaws at the Woodard ranch fifty miles from Casper. His mutilated body was found after the forthright assault, with the posse chasing the fugitives toward the hills. The outlaws, linked to the Hole-in-the-Wall region, escaped as deputies were slain and evidence of brutal torture appeared on the sheriff. Reinforcements mobilized from Casper, and a wide pursuit continued, with Sheriff Kicker’s county taking the lead in the manhunt.
