Perhaps so, but I doubt that he would have been eligible for the annual Lawman Of The Year Award from the Walking Tall Festival in Adamsville, Tennessee, of which the first one was held about five years after this incident.
The police deserve a lot of credit your service is deeply appreciated thanks even on rescue 911your show rocks thanks job well done for putting the robbers away for a long time you should be proud ! Joe
thank you, i like to keep records of where episodes of this show occurred at. I will add this address to my file. Any ideas where the criminals were captured. I have found a few cabins right outside the tunnel but none of them appear to be the same one
@@TheHeadlessHorsemanI looked at photos of the bar on Google Street photos and it looks exactly the same as it does in this Rescue 911 episode. It's kind of eerie.
Remember the displeasure of having to use those back in the day. If you were lucky, you would find one that was not graffitid all over, not covered with some mystery substance, not missing parts or all of the handset, not having a broken dial, and not jammed up with crap stuffed into the coin slot. The one in the bar was OK because it was in a place nobody would mess with it.
Seems like a decent small community and nice place to have a family. It's good no one else was hurt and amazing with how many shots these guys fired specially at the officers nobody else was hit. I'm sure it put town on edge for many years after. They should design a red bar with purple heart in center for any dispatcher who had dispatched alone during situations like these and officers who were in situations like these saving lives and protecting the community.
I live in Wyoming and lived in Cody for almost 10 years and now I live just 30 minutes away and watching this video knowing Janet the dispatcher personally it's a trip. Though weird things happen here. We have several members of the Mexican Mafia who live here so you can imagine the weird and brutal shit that happens here.
@@sreyasdesai4865 Yeah a couple years ago the Mexican Mafia killed a man and tried to send his head back to Mexico. A local farmers was irrigating his field and found the headless body. Worst thing is our law enforcement is in cahoots with the Mexican Mafia. It's seriously unreal to see real criminals go free and others do a lot of time.
Remote locations are often the place where cartel activity happens. There was an Unsolved Mysteries episode about a young man who was riding through the woods on horseback. Apparently, he ran across a drug drop in those woods and was murdered shortly afterwards. :-/
This is one of the oldest cases profiled in this series. I always wanted to go visit up there but so far haven't got any further north of I-80 in Wyoming.
The one in Lexington was the nearest one to my hometown of Morehead in Kentucky, but it closed in 1999 along with the Lexington store for Service Merchandise.
Had the Cody PD been in possession of a universal radio (if they were invented before then), the man at the bar who was killed would probably have survived. And for the bust to take place in Yellowstone National Park, those cops were lucky they didn't come across a grizzly bear otherwise if they had any K-9 units, they would've had to keep the dogs in their cars, which probably would've been a useless gesture since bears are capable of getting into a family car let alone an occupied cabin. I can't believe the show didn't say what the trio's sentence was since they were convicted of murder except for the female who probably pled guilty to lesser charges.
Agreed but this was in 1983 when technologically speaking, some things were still primitive. Even now there are still a number of cell dead spots (I live in one) Many towns didn't have a 911 system yet and DNA was still a few years away. It sure seemed like a modern world back then but compared to now it really wasn't. Another commenter said that the two guys were still in prison today.
Bars have their share of incidents no matter where they are at least in PA though if a bar has more than a certain number of incidents they can be labeled as a "Nuisance Bar" and the police CAN shut it down. I've been a few bars with no issues just go to ones that people you know are there or go into a strange bar WITH people you know don't go in alone.
While watching, I noticed your version has a few seconds cut out where the officer yells to the other officer to take cover when he walking in front of the cabin where they saw the suspects car and when they briefly showed the suspect inside the cabin
They think they're the Hole in the Wall gang. My brother has 20 guns, all of them rifles and long guns, but he's never had any run-ins like this. That's why I think there are right ppl and wrong ppl for guns. And they're definitely WRONG.
Policemen, you can't just sit there and drive your patrol cars and let those thugs shoot at you like that. They should've used their weapons and returned fire to defend themselves.
@@LindaCooper-i3f I wrote it so long ago, I can't remember if I misspoke, or was going for the extra ridiculous factor of being pulled over for driving too slow.
I remember herring about this in spring (if I remember correctly) of 1983 living in small town growing up in small town in my opinion is the best yes you know almost everyone and they know you if this occurred today (October 2022) you’d have everyone pulling out there cell phone and the ones that could legally carry guns would be trying to stop them from getting away you’d most likely have caught them very quickly if it was today still hard to believe that is roughly 40 years ago now time has flown back
I wanna visit Cody to see a rodeo I read Cody’s the rodeo capital of the world. If you look closely at 4:30 you see a picture of a cowboy on a horse on the police car PS: if I want to live in Wyoming I’d probably pick Cody
Why didn't the bearded cop get in his partners patrol car when his was shot to hell ? Then there would have been one deputy driving, one shooting back.
With his unit shot up, and out of commission, there was only ONE unit left....he should have got in with his fellow deputy to give better odds. 2 guns are better than one.
If you were paying attention you would of heard that THEY STOLE the guns. It's also Federal Law that if you have a gun you are not allowed in bars. If you are in a restaurant, you can not drink alcohol. You can not even purchase alcohol when armed. Fuck your background checks they do absolutely nothing and have stopped an amazing 0.00 shootings. Why? Oh that's right, there's this thing called Black Market and also people steal them. "If only we had stronger background checks, criminals would still steal them, but who cares it makes me feel safer that you had to get it." - The Left
@@fear5735 There's no federal law against possession of firearms in a bar. Most states restrict it in some way though. Others may allow it as long you are not over the legal limit BAC wise. Others might allow it but say no drinking whatsoever. And I think a couple states lack any laws on the matter.
They made it look like it was only 1 day for them to find and arrest the criminals. In reality, it was close to 1 week before the criminals were found and arrested. Typical dramatization of the situation but facts would be much better.

The one who pulled the trigger was sent to death row the other guy got life and the whore they were with got 50 years.

I love the job the dispatcher did that night. She was awesome!
Mr. Eli rest in peace also.
He always knew what was going on in Cody. He should have been a honorary cop.
It was not the bartender who got shot and killed. It was a bar patron named Ron Jensen, only 26 years old.
Perhaps so, but I doubt that he would have been eligible for the annual Lawman Of The Year Award from the Walking Tall Festival in Adamsville, Tennessee, of which the first one was held about five years after this incident.
That dispatcher was a angel. She worked fast and was very calm
Rest in Peace, Ron.
According to the rescue 911 wiki. The male suspects were both sentenced to life in prison.
And as of this year, they are still incarcerated in the Wyoming state prison. Their names are William Alloway and Charles Pote.
Good!!
Wyoming cops episode in r911
Well, that was a no shit. A man died. The female suspect should have been charged with similar charges.
@@jh6925 Definitely!
Crazy when these little towns with like 3 cops gets hit like this.
There is no place that's actually "safe". Maybe safe-ER than other places, but the monsters can show up anywhere.
The police deserve a lot of credit your service is deeply appreciated thanks even on rescue 911your show rocks thanks job well done for putting the robbers away for a long time you should be proud ! Joe
I googled the Silver Dollar Bar. It's still there at 1313 Sheridan Ave, Cody, WY 82414.

@ILoveStorms yeah it didn't change much. Wonder if there is any bullet holes in there still?
Like in GTA. The car you chasing is constantly shooting and missing 😂
This was one of the best episode!
RIP man in the bar...
Stupid decision
ana idk who was the guy who got killed?
Ikr. So sad...
@@backpackdude1 his name was Ronald Jensen he was 26 yrs old
These days, everyone would be on their cell phones calling the cops and the robbers can't really confiscate ALL of them...
Yes! Those pay phones sucked! I hated the days before cellphones!
Remember the displeasure of having to use those back in the day. If you were lucky, you would find one that was not graffitid all over, not covered with some mystery substance, not missing parts or all of the handset, not having a broken dial, and not jammed up with crap stuffed into the coin slot.
The one in the bar was OK because it was in a place nobody would mess with it.
I adore the landlines no matter how much technology improves.
Besides, even cellphones have their limitations.
Man that dispatcher handled her business. That’s no fun. She did great!

Harry Schlonge firing from a moving vehicle impedes accuracy. Which is why every police agency I know of prohibits officers from doing so.

Lol at 12:33 the cops m16 doesn’t have a mag in it.
Most likely forgot to place it in during the process. A lot of episodes are re-enactments so that actor knows he is using a prop replica.
They should have got the same amount of time because they were in it together.
As a Thank You Eli probably gave the officers free drinks for life 🍺 🍻
Is there a news story from this incident?
Did anyone else say, "OMG, WOOLWORTH'S!!" ?
A whole different world in 1983. We had two but they both closed in 1979.
The one in Lexington was the nearest one to my hometown of Morehead in Kentucky, but it closed in 1999 along with the Lexington store for Service Merchandise.
at 12:32, that sure is one huge clip in that ar-15! lol
They probably removed it and forgot to put it back in. All guns in these recreation episodes always use prop guns and blank bullets.

Why did the one cop not get inside the other car when his car was disabled?
Where's the magazine at 12:32?
Wyoming highway patrol do not have aircraft. This needs to change.
How true that is.
But what can they do with the auditors who think that there isn’t enough crime to justify the costs of maintenance and upkeep?
Well, when I am older I will never go to a bar. Lesson learned

There were houses if they miss they could kill innocent people.
The police unlike the suspects are responsible for where the bullets that come from their gun end up. That's why they couldn't just return fire.
Agree
For real,so,so true
I would have blown the tires out.
