A man, out on bond for unrelated crimes, was arrested October 12th in Laramie on charges that he had threatened another person with a gun.

According to Laramie Police officer Chris Cleven, officers responded to the 3500 block of Willett Drive to reports that a person there had been threatened by a man with a gun.  While en route to the scene, officers observed a possible suspect on the way.  After further investigation police arrested 23-year-old Ramon Slater, a resident of Laramie, on charges of aggravated assault.

Officers say that the argument that started the incident was over a relationship issue between a male and a female, officials declined to elaborate further.
