DMV evacuation
Metro Police and the Las Vegas Fire Department investigated a "suspicious item" at a Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles office in eastern Las Vegas.
The Department of Motor Vehicles made the decision to evacuate the building shortly after 11 a.m., Officer Bill Cassell said. The building has since reopened.
An item was found that seemed out of place at the DMV office at 2701 E. Sahara Ave., said Officer Bill Cassell.
As people left the building, someone pulled the fire alarm, Cassell said, although there is no evidence of a fire or foul odor.
The armored bomb squad had not been called to the building.
No details of what police found have been released.
2701 E. Sahara Ave. Las Vegas,
NV
