A Nevada college student was arrested on campus after police found a rifle and 2,000 rounds of ammunition in his vehicle.
Shayn Striegel, a 27-year-old student at the College of Southern Nevada, was arrested and charged Wednesday evening after officers discovered the weapon while acting on a tip, the school said in a statement.
"Officers arrived and tracked down the student who had driven the car to campus. It was then determined that the student had a rifle and approximately 2,000 rounds of ammunition inside the vehicle," the statement said."Firearms are prohibited on Nevada System of Higher Education campuses, including those kept in parked vehicles."
No one was hurt and there was no immediate threat to others on campus, the college said. Striegel is scheduled to appear in court on Friday."Although police do not believe that an ongoing threat exists to Henderson or any of our other campuses as a result of this incident, it is an important reminder of the effectiveness of the 'see something, say something' public safety campaign," according to the statement.
