Medical update released on boy in vehicle vs. child crash

RENO, Nev. (KOLO) – The Reno Police Department released a progress report on an 8-year-old boy who was hit by a car in a Walmart parking lot earlier this week, according to Officer Hunter Mercurio.

“The child is going to be totally OK,” Mercurio said on Wednesday, Jan. 21.

After the incident, he had been transported to a local hospital with major injuries, police said.

The incident happened on Saturday, Jan. 17, about 1:20 p.m. at the 250 Vista Knoll Parkway store in Reno.

“The child was walking in between cars then went into the aisle and was struck by a moving car,” Mercurio said.

The Reno Police Department’s Major Accident Investigation Team has found that speed and impairment do not appear to be factors in this crash, the police said.

The driver is cooperating with investigators.

“Make sure to be aware of your surroundings when walking through parking lots with your family,” Mercurio said. “Drive slow and be attentive especially while in crowded parking lots.”

Anyone with information that could help in the investigation is asked to call police at (775) 334-2677 or Secret Witness at (775) 322-4900.

Threats made to several Northern Nevada high schools determined unfounded

Threats made to several Northern Nevada high schools determined unfounded

The FBI has determined threats made to several Northern Nevada high schools Wednesday morning were a hoax.

So far, Storey County, Douglas County, Churchill County, and Carson City have reported investigating these threats.

Classes at Virginia City High School were canceled for the day out of an abundance of caution, and due to police activity in the area. Classes are set to resume as normal tomorrow.

Carson City High School temporarily put classes on hold this morning, before resuming when deemed safe.

Several of the school districts impacted are reporting increased security measures Wednesday, out of an abundance of caution.

The investigation into the origin of the threats is ongoing.

The Nevada Threat Analysis Center says it has been made aware of bomb threat emails targeting school districts in Nevada.

“The Nevada Threat Analysis Center is conducting analysis related to the threats and sharing information with appropriate law enforcement partners conducting the investigation into these incidents,” said the NTAC in a statement. “At this time, the Nevada Threat Analysis Center is not aware of any physical bomb or incendiary device at any school district, and the threats are believed to be a hoax.”
