Gunplay Closes Reno Intersection

A busy Reno intersection had to be shutdown following reports of gunshots. Authorities say they came from a vehicle that drove into the lot and parked in front of the Corner Minit Mart at Mill and Kietzke.

It began about 7:30 p.m., when gunfire was heard along I-580. They were first reported by officers with the Nevada Department of Parole and Probation, who notified the Nevada Highway Patrol.

Three people are in custody. Its unclear what they will be charged with.

Reno police say no one was hurt and the roadway reopened an hour and a half later. Earlier reports of a standoff inside the mart are incorrect.

Ed. Note: My wife’s store, Port of Subs, is next door to the Corner Minit Mart. She was not there at the time and her two employees are okay.
