Just before dusk on March 8, 2025, two 911 calls brought officers to a south Casper home in the 800 block, where an argument among family members turned violent. Responding officers found 47-year-old Jeremiah Wayne Reyes inside the residence with a gunshot wound; he was pronounced dead at the scene. Initial police updates gave the location as the 800 block of West 53rd Street; the coroner’s press release later described it as the 800 block of West 43rd Street.

Officers were dispatched around 5:45 p.m. after a third-party caller reported a heated family dispute and said a male had gone to the home to intervene; a second call from inside the house reported Reyes had been shot. Police detained everyone who was there, processed the scene, and said there was no ongoing threat. Investigators described the case as complicated and said no arrests had been made while they corroborated accounts and collected evidence.

Prosecutors later declined to file charges. Case materials say Casper police had recommended second-degree murder and aggravated assault counts against 74-year-old Clarence Lee Daniels, who brought a .44 Magnum to his daughter’s home.

Does anyone have information about the evening of March 8 or the people involved that could help clarify what happened?
