On Monday, July 20, 2015, two men were shot dead inside of a Cheyenne, Wyoming coin shop, during the commission of an armed robbery. Police have identified the victims as 67-year-old Dwight Brockman and 76-year-old George Manley. Brockman operated The Coin Shop, which is located at 510 West Lincolnway.

The bodies were discovered inside of the shop on Monday morning, shortly after the crime.
