On Thursday a man from Laramie County was hospitalized after eating cantaloupe believed to be contaminated with listeria.
The contaminated cantaloupe was grown in the Rocky Ford region of southern Colorado. So far two people have died from eating them and more than 20 have been hospitalized. Symptoms of infection include fever, muscle ache, diarrhea, headache, stiff neck, confusion and convulsions.
News Channel Five contacted King Soopers, Safeway, Albertsons and Wal-Mart in Cheyenne. All said they either pulled the Rocky Ford Cantaloupe from their shelves or didn't order it to begin with.
