LAS VEGAS (AP) — Police in Las Vegas say two patrol officers and a 25-year-old man exchanged 20 gunshots, but no one was wounded, before the man was arrested this past weekend.
Assistant Sheriff Brett Zimmerman told reporters Wednesday that Nicholas Tano pulled a handgun from the trunk of his car and fired 11 shots Sunday afternoon at two officers.
The two officers were responding to a woman's 911 call. The woman told officers that Tano had a gun and was threatening her in a northwest Las Vegas home.
