Update November 7, 2022:

Reno Police say a large police presence occurred near the Reno-Tahoe International Airport on Friday due to a call that turned out to be fake. 

They called it a "swatting" event. Somebody apparently called in a fake threat and Reno Police responded considering the information they did have on the event. 

------------------------------------------------------

A large police presence is currently near Terminal Way and the Reno-Tahoe International Airport. 

Police started to gather in the area around 2 p.m. on Friday. 

The FBI and bomb squad are on scene.

Avoid the area.

Various ramp and road closures in the area of I-580 and Villanova/Durham drive were closed but have since reopened. 

We have a crew in the area trying to gather more information.
