The Laramie County district attorney has announced he won't file criminal charges against a Cheyenne policeman who shot and wounded a motorist during a traffic stop last month. District Attorney Scott Homar announced Wednesday that 21-year-old Matthew Jacoby-Carabajal turned his car toward officers and drove at them before the unidentified officer shot him on Sept. 19th. Jacoby-Carabajal remains in stable condition at the University of Colorado Hospital in Aurora, a hospital spokeswoman says. Capt. Mitch Maxwell of the Cheyenne Police Department says the department will now undertake a confidential review of the shooting. Maxwell says the officer felt his life was in danger. He says the officer has returned to duty, but is not currently assigned to patrol.
