The Reno Police Department arrested two men after an incident where security guards were allegedly threatened with a weapon at a bus station.
It happened at the 4th Street Station on October 12, according to a post from the Reno Police Department on Facebook.
An investigation revealed that security officers were trying to remove two people from the station when one of them, identified as 18-year-old Robert Ruiz-Ramos, allegedly threatened a security officer and lifted his shirt, revealing what appeared to be a handgun in his waistband.
Officers using a drone later found Ruiz-Ramos and another person, identified as 19-year-old Jake Phillip, on board an RTC bus.
