I live in Cody, was a little kid when this happened. I personally know all the cops involved in this and Gene Plambeck is still a good family friend. The dispatcher's grandson and her ex-daughter in law live next door to me. Eli, the guy in the bar who called 911, was an interesting fellow.

@@HoboRoadrunner Eli was badly injured in a rollover accident right after he graduated from high school in the 60s, he sustained pretty severe brain trauma. He started getting really strange in the 1990s and early 2000s, got dirtier and dirtier. Always had a bandanna around his head. He was known locally as 'Crazy Eli' but he was mostly harmless. He'd sometimes have an 'episode' and start yelling at passersby or at himself. I want to say he passed away about 10 or 12 years ago.
@@jasonvoorhees6152 Shatner's comment that he was convicted of murder and attempted murder was technically inaccurate. He pleaded guilty to those charges and was sentenced to 28 years to life.

As of 2022, they are both still incarcerated at the Wyoming State Penitentiary.
I agree with you there. I think that it is sad that an innocent person got killed during this incident. I think that it is good that the suspects were stressful arrested and surrendered peacefully and no one else was injured or killed
wow in all my years rewatching this show I just now realized the little stinger at the start where they show a first responder vehicle, when its a story involving cops they show a cop car.
@ILoveStorms it's also against policy of nearly all departments not to fire from a moving vehicle this fundamental policing. As they say in the video they have to worry where their shots will go.
I think that it is amazing that the suspects surrendered peacefully when the deputies and the officers caught up with them. I was thinking that the suspects would have come charging out and shooting at the police officers because of the number of shots that they fired at the police officers. I think that it is good that the suspects were arrested and no other innocent people were injured or killed
No, that title goes to the first episode where a robber of a grocery store who put a sales clerk at gunpoint and held hostages died while trying to evade police.
@@101Volts "Supermarket Hostage" was technically on the third episode. It was the season 1 premiere, but two specials aired before that. The first one where someone died was "Church Bus", which was the first segment of special #1. It was later repeated on season 1, episode 17.
@@geomodelrailroader I disagree. The worst was when the Butane sniffer died. That's the only segment that a lone victim died, and it didn't have the happy ending it typically does.
What started out as a simple make and take bar fight turned into a full blown mass shooting and high speed chase. After killing the bartender all three suspects escaped down Highway 16 to Buffalo Bill Dam and fled into Yellowstone and holed up at a cabin in Fishing Bridge. The next day the NPS Rangers, Park County Sheriff and Park County SWAT arrived and all three suspects were arrested. The female suspect was found guilty of manslaughter and sentenced to life in the Wyoming Woman's Hospital in Lusk the two men were found guilty of murder, manslaughter, shooting a police officer, and armed robbery they are on death row in Wyoming State Penitentiary in Rawlins.
I just did a deep dive into some old news articles about the incident and aftermath. Some corrections: 1. The man killed was a bar patron shot at random when the suspect fired through the window. He was not the bartender. 2. The cabin was about halfway between Cody and Yellowstone. 3. None of the suspects got death row. The woman pleaded guilty to being an accessory after the fact to murder and got 18 to 24 months in the Wyoming Women's Center. She was released in 1985. The man who fired the gun into the bar pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and attempted first-degree murder of Officer Peglow and got 28 years to life. The other male suspect was convicted of eight felonies, but those did not include murder. He got two life terms. None of the three were convicted of manslaughter or armed robbery.
Close, the current Walmart is a few blocks west of the cemetery, was finished in 1998 of so. The old Walmart was next to the cemetery on the east side.
It's as if for example we're hungry we have no money. You decide let's order a pizza and when the pizza guy gets here you're plan is to rob him. And you tell me to call and order the pizza. You acting alone actually rob the pizza man. Doesn't matter if I'm in another room or I decided to leave and go to 10 miles away by the time the pizza man show's up. I in that situation couldn't say to the judge but I didn't rob anyone all I did was call and order a pizza. If I knew that was your internet and I still called to order that pizza well had I not done so the guy would not had shown up in the 1st place for you to of robbed him.
She was still an accessory to the crime. She drove the car while they fired shots at the police officers. I think that she probably would most likely be charged with aiding and abetting fugitives
1983. this took place same year Furture WWE Superstar Razor Ramon .Real name Scott hall Worked as a bartender and Had Murdered a man with a firearm when the Suspect who tried to Steal his car was Armed hall had taken the suspects firearm. Hall stood Trial and Because of lack of evidence of any wherabouts his Case was Dismissed
I'd imagine back then being small rural area, most cops on call no take home cars, portable radios minus ones on duty which was typical in small budget towns he stayed behind and did a road block and the other 2 flew by. They probably figured they'd have shoot out other side of tunnels so he blocked road incase they came back but also to stop anyone else from traveling toward a potential shoot out. But now days they'd have probably gone together and someone else secure road. There is many rural places still like Cody of 80s in our modern day.
Also seconds count when you are trying to catch suspects so to stop and get the officer whose car was disabled wpuld cost them that valuable time he was seen with the others later on
Once get out of prison after sentences , they are going forget why they were in prison because when you get older you will become forgetful, it's a fact, nice try police officers
That is the Shoshone National Forest and the Shoshone River. Fishing Bridge is well into Yellowstone, which is closed to vehicles this time of year. The cabin shown burnt down in a forest fire some years ago.
The town was named for Buffalo Bill Cody, and the Buffalo Bill Historical Center can be seen at 1:46.

Charles Arthur Pote and Steve Alloway. They are still in prison today. Looks like the wife, Connie Pote, is out.
This is my favorite shit ever - love me some rescue 911
This was and is still my favorite esp.
God love this series. I'd wish it would come back.
the dispatcher was left-handed. :)
And she handled this very, very well, despite having her hands full and seemingly overwhelmed with all the calls.
I’m left handed too Xx
Even, in a small town like Cody, they will catch you.
Yup

The evil woman and her henchmen felt like attacking the bar
Thank God they didn't have a shootout, most of those officers rifles didn't have magazines of ammo😂
The police officers have to defend themselves, just get your guns and return fire on the suspects.
Not with houses nearby in the line of fire. Glad they were caught and surrendered the next AM
They can't just blaze guns, opens a lawsuit against the department if an innocent person is injured by the officers
@@BlueEyes-ii4zzI guess they were in a no-win situation like they said.

25 MPR, seriously? They're idiots if they decided to go THAT slow!!
True but they got away doing 25
The Police would be able to catch them at THAT speed, though
It's tough for 1 911 dispatcher to handle everything they need 2 or 3 or 4 dispatchers for 911
It was a smaller town back then what do you expect.
Hope that’s changed since
Of course back in the 80s police cruisers didn't have Dash Cams
This was the very first Rescue 911 segment I saw when the show came to GetTV a couple of years back
Some were around the 5 min mark they mention the cemetery west of town were Walmart now is next to it.
Close, the current Walmart is a few blocks west of the cemetery, was finished in 1998 of so. The old Walmart was next to the cemetery on the east side.
About the lady suspect, what did she do? How come she got arrested too? The male suspects fired guns, but she didn't.
she was with those two men and took part in the incident by going with them and assisting them.

Yeah that’s true 😊
and of Course the 1983 Homicide of Nancy By WWE wrestler Jimmy Snuka who also stood Trial in 2015-2016
Is there a particular reason the cop whose car was out of commission didn't get into the other car so they could at least fire back?

It is possible the suspects held up in a cabin in the briger teton forest. I can't find the tunnels they drove through on google though
I've been through the tunnels. They're west of Cody, WY right next to the Buffalo Bill Reservoir.
fallow Highway 16 west it goes to Buffalo Bill Dam and the tunnels go right through it the cabin is outside of Fishing Bridge in Yellowstone.
