Reno Police have released new details following a Saturday afternoon shooting and barricade situation on Denslowe Drive.
Officers say the incident occurred just after 4 p.m. when reports came in of a man firing a gun on Denslowe Drive. Upon arrival, officers found one victim had been shot in the ankle, while a second victim was injured during the encounter but not struck by gunfire.
Both received treatment for their injuries.
Police say the suspected shooter ran into a nearby apartment, prompting the creation of a perimeter and the evacuation of residents. Investigators also obtained a search warrant for the apartment.
Anthony Watts, 21, surrendered. Officers arrested him on an unrelated warrant.
The suspected shooter, 21-year-old Tosh Howe, later surrendered without incident. Howe faces multiple charges, including battery with a deadly weapon, carrying a concealed weapon without a permit, assault with a deadly weapon, and coercion with a deadly weapon.
