According to a booking sheet, 51-year-old Lonny Farmer was arrested at the Round-Up Motel at 403 S. Greeley Hwy. at 9:56 p.m. on Jan. 15 after a Laramie County Sheriff's deputy was called to the location for a male passed out behind the steering wheel.
The deputy says Farmer was asleep in the driver's seat and the keys were in the center console area.

Farmer was booked into the Laramie County Detention Center on his warrants and immediately taken to a holding cell for reportedly being uncooperative and making suicidal statements.
