Ronald Walter Rice, 40, was arrested when he reportedly attempted to sell stolen skydiving equipment to a skydiving company at the Fremont County Airport. He was booked into the Fremont County Detention Center on charges of felony theft, criminal impersonation, false reporting to authorities and introducing contraband in the first degree and held on a $2,000 bond. The FCSO said Rice bonded out Wednesday.
An employee of the skydiving company alerted sheriff's deputies after Rice allegedly called the company trying to sell skydiving equipment. The company had been aware of an earlier theft of skydiving equipment in El Paso County.
The FCSO in a media release said deputies arrested Rice when he met with the skydiving company employee and attempted to sell the skydiving equipment valued at more than $9,000. Rice reportedly gave deputies a false name at the time of his arrest, and detention deputies discovered a controlled substance on his person during booking.
