CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) - A Cheyenne man accused of shooting a 19-year-old man in the head and dumping his body in a Wyoming reservoir has pleaded guilty to two federal firearms charges.
KGWN-TV reports Armando Ramirez-Serna pleaded guilty Tuesday to robbery of a controlled substance by threatening with a gun and carrying or firing a gun during a violent crime causing death.
Authorities say he killed Justin Robinson in November 2017, dumped his body in a reservoir east of Cheyenne and burned Robinson’s SUV.
