LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) – A report from the North Las Vegas Police Department explains some of the damage left to a Henderson townhome involved in a days-long barricade.
The townhome, off of Callen Falls Avenue near Galleria and Cadence Vista, had its garage door and face of the backside of the building ripped off.
North Las Vegas Police were one of several agencies on scene while the barricade unfolded.
According to a report from North Las Vegas Police, Henderson Police made the call for North Las Vegas police to break down the garage door with a Bearcat.
The report says they were unable to find the suspect in the townhome after searching with multiple drones.

It also says they knew the suspect had fired multiple rounds with a rifle and had access to a car and motorcycle in the garage.
Regarding the face being ripped off the backside of the building, FOX5 requested an interview with HPD’s Police Chief.
They declined an interview, citing an open investigation, and referred us back to the Critical Incident Community Briefing video released earlier this week
In that briefing, Jonathan Boucher, Deputy Chief of Support for the City of Henderson Police Department says, “We understand that some in our community may question the duration of this incident, or why particular tactics to resolve this situation were implemented, however this briefing will not discuss specific police tactics as that information could be exploited by the criminal element of our society.”
