Las Vegas police are investigating after an officer fired a shot at a suspect fleeing a traffic stop early Friday morning.
The officer tried to pull over a black Dodge Durango with license plates that belonged to a different vehicle. The driver took off northbound on Lamb Boulevard and at one point crossed into the southbound lanes.
A man got out of the car and fled on foot. During the chase, the officer saw something in the man’s hand and fired a single shot, police said.
The man wasn’t injured and was later taken into custody. Police could not confirm if the man had a weapon when he was arrested.
This is the 9th officer involved shooting of 2018. Per police policy, the identity of the officer will be released after 48 hours.
