At approximately 8 a.m. Monday morning, an officer accepted Omar Segura-Hernandez, 28, a Carson City resident, into the Carson City Detention Facility on Musser St. Segura-Hernandez was originally arrested for a felony failure to appear warrant issued in his name. Upon arrival at the detention facility, the booking officer accessed Segura-Hernandez' records and discovered a felony US Marshall hold for felon in possession of a firearm and a misdemeanor NHP failure to appear for a traffic violation hold. Both felony charges carry no bail.

This is my annual pre-Christmas reminder that Topaz Lake, located along U.S. 395 at the Nevada-California state line, will open its 2012 fishing season, one half hour before sunrise, on January 1.
If the weather is decent, if you don't have a massive hang-over, if you like to fish and if you don't have anything else planned, this could be a fun way to start the New Year.

It was a relatively quiet weekend for crime in Carson City, with only one felony arrest.

Joel David Germain, 42, of Carson City, was arrested early Sunday morning in the 700 block of Hot Springs Road on a felony warrant out of California, and for failing to register as an ex-felon, a misdemeanor. He was held without bail.

Carson City Sheriff's deputies also arrested three persons for first offense driving under the influence, in three separate incidents.
