He was also found with stolen property from a prior case.

The Laramie County jail was unable to accept Lamphier on felony charges and an outstanding felony warrant for larceny. For the suspect to remain in custody, police transported him to the Platte County jail (Wheatland) on a misdemeanor charge for damaging property.
