Robert Perea, The Fernley Reporter

The Lyon County Sheriff’s Office is looking for a car that was stolen early Thursday morning from the Silverado Casino parking lot.

The vehicle is a red 2008 Dodge Avenger with Nevada license plate number 321Y89. It has a black sticker on the windshield that says “Locally Hated" and a red and white Avengers symbol on the rear window, and no hub caps.

The Sheriff’s Office said the suspect is Nicholas Wesley Neal, 45 years old, who is 6 feet tall and 195 pounds. He has brown hair and blue eyes and was last seen wearing a black mask, black hoodie, and blue jeans. The vehicle was stolen around 2:20 a.m. and was seen on camera leaving toward Reno.

Why does the County have to pay the whole bill? Just my opinion.
