(AP) — Yellowstone National Park rangers and Wyoming sheriff’s deputies seeking a murder suspect held a vacationing family at gunpoint for an hour without adequate cause, a lawsuit claims. Investigators had found a car Bullinger was driving in Bridger-Teton National Forest outside Moran, near Grand Teton National Park in western Wyoming, on July 12, 2017. Park rangers allegedly had flagged the family’s car as one Bullinger may have been driving. More officers arrived, including Park County sheriff’s deputies, and officers then held the three family members at gunpoint in separate vehicles, the lawsuit alleges. “The terrified family went on its way, without receiving an apology or additional explanation,” the lawsuit states.
