Nevada State University in Henderson was briefly placed under a shelter-in-place order on Wednesday after a carjacking and police chase. A stolen vehicle was tracked to the area near the university, prompting a large police presence and a shelter-in-place alert for students. However, the suspects were apprehended shortly after, and the university lifted the lockdown, stating that there was no longer a threat on campus. The incident began with a 911 call around 1:50 pm about a car being stolen from the Rio Vista Drive area. The suspects abandoned the vehicle near the university before being apprehended in the surrounding area. The Nevada State University community expressed concern and support for one another on social media during the lockdown, but with the situation now resolved, students can resume normal activities.
