A reward is being offered after windows were shot out at two Gardnerville locations, according to the Douglas County Sheriff's Office.
The first incident occurred on May 23 at approximately 10:05 p.m, when a victim was driving north on Tillman Lane. As the driver passed Jobs Peak he heard the driver’s side rear glass panel shatter, said Douglas County Sheriff's Office Sgt. Pat Brooks.
