Reno Gang Unit Stops Five in Downtown Raid | Reno News

Reno’s Regional Gang Unit struck big Wednesday, July 22, busting five suspected gang members downtown during a proactive raid. Officers spotted clear gang indicators, then chased down a fleeing suspect who was armed with a hidden 9mm pistol. After a tense tussle, the suspect was taken down — and the firearm is now in forensics. The roundup led to multiple charges: gang firearm offenses, resisting arrest, drug and alcohol violations, even graffiti-related crimes. Plus, a runaway juvenile was safely located. This operation highlights the unit’s mission: proactive enforcement and inter-agency collaboration to curb gang violence and keep Reno’s streets safer.
