CARSON CITY – The Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce is pushing for major changes to the state’s collective bargaining law for public sector employees.
In an amendment to another bill that already passed the Senate, the  chamber said the changes will alleviate budget concerns for local governments and save taxpayers money.

Carson City paramedics and Care Flight were called tonight to the Senator apartment building after an infant was reportedly unconscious.

The report came in at around 5:50 p.m., where the infant was reportedly unconscious and then vacillating between being conscious and unconscious, according to dispatch scanner traffic. Parents reported to dispatch that the infant fell on Wednesday. Care Flight landed in the area of Stewart, Roop and 5th streets at 6:08 p.m. and lifted at 6:19 p.m. to Renown Medical Center in Reno.

A Michigan man is in custody after allegedly drawing a knife, telling patrons in a Carson City bar that he was going to kill them and then leading authorities on a pursuit that ended early Thursday morning in Lyon County.
