A man was taken into custody Friday after he barricaded himself inside a homemade armored vehicle near the Hoover Dam on U.S. Highway 93, investigators said.
Officials received calls around 11:54 a.m. local time about a white man who had stopped on the highway near the Mike OCallaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, which heads into Arizona, Jason Buratczuk from the Nevada Highway Patrol said at a news conference.
Officials said the unidentified man was holed up in what looked to be a homemade armored vehicle and he appeared to have some kind of long gun rifle and signage. Authorities stopped traffic in both directions, seeing as this was near a tourist hotspot.

"Pictures emerged of notes taped to the window of the vehicle saying, Mr. President release the report, KLAS reported. It was unclear what the notes may have meant."

WOW! I was in Vegas for a trade show this past week and crossed over that very bridge at about 10:00 AM this morning.

It was unclear what the notes may have meant. My guess would be that the guy wants the President to release a report.

"He said that it was a possibility that the man had mental issues.
Nothing gets past these guys.
To: Michael.SF.
Indeed.
Guy went to the trouble of upgrading the truck.
Only to fail on the note.

White dudes are bad I guess?
At least that’s what I’ve been fed from the 3 square meals a day from the MSM for the past 25 years.
It’s still Ramadan isn’t it?

It’s an effort so show us all that occasionally a “White” person has mental issues.
To: thoughtomator
Unclear only to the dumbest of morons. So, media and actors couldnt figure it out.

What the heck does his skin color have to do with anything? Frequent drunks, thieves, bullies, wife-beaters, rapists, murderers, mass murderers, destroyers of sky & erf.
Relevant to more normal pigment bearers who might wish to avoid the dam, the county, the state and beyond.

Sounds like Dirty Harry brining in Molly No Show.

“... some kind of long gun rifle
As opposed to a “short gun rifle”?

Remember the guy years ago in Colorado who destroyed his town with a concrete armored bulldozer? It was a dispute over not being paid by the township for property he owned or something like that.

Hey FOX: What the heck does his skin color have to do with anything?According to the media, everything. But, when a black person does something bad, it's #notallblacks.
