Emergency responders across Lincoln County handled more than 100 calls for service during the final week of May, including arrests, medical emergencies and a vehicle collision involving livestock.

The Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office responded to a total of 104 calls between May 26 and May 31. Noteworthy incidents included a burglary investigation in Panaca that resulted in the arrest of one individual on charges of assault with a deadly weapon. No injuries were reported.

Deputies also responded to several quality-of-life and public safety calls throughout the week. In Caliente, deputies investigated a report of a dog at large after a fence was blown over. The owner repaired the fence and received a warning.

On May 27, deputies responded to a disorderly conduct call in Alamo. Those involved were issued warnings. A theft report in Panaca on May 29 was determined to be a civil matter after investigation.

Deputies also conducted OHV enforcement in Panaca on May 29, issuing a verbal warning to a juvenile operating a side-by-side vehicle within town limits without a driver’s license.

A suspicious person call on May 30 in Panaca led to the discovery of an outstanding warrant. The individual was taken into custody without incident.

Two arrests occurred on May 31. Deputies responding to a domestic disturbance in Panaca arrested one individual, while another call involving harassment in Alamo was resolved after the involved party left the area without further incident.

Deputies also responded to a vehicle-versus-deer collision on May 31. Medical personnel evaluated the driver, who was treated at the scene and did not require transport.

The Pahranagat Valley Volunteer Fire District (PVVFD) responded to two calls during the reporting period, including one medical emergency and one vehicle accident involving livestock.

At approximately 8:50 p.m. on May 25, PVVFD crews responded to State Route 375 after a pickup truck struck a cow on the roadway. Firefighters, along with the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office, assessed the driver, secured the scene and evaluated roadway hazards. The driver was medically evaluated but did not require treatment or transport. Nevada Highway Patrol conducted the traffic investigation while responders coordinated efforts regarding the injured livestock and roadway safety.

PVVFD’s second call occurred late on May 28 when crews responded to a significant medical emergency in the Alamo area. Responders provided immediate care to stabilize the patient before the individual was transported by ambulance to a medical facility for further treatment. The Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office assisted during the incident.
