Reno Police tell Channel 2 News they are conducting a death investigation in the 2300 block of Escalera Court off of West 7th Street in north Reno.
Police say it is too early to tell if the death is suspicious or what may have lead to the death, but you should expect to see a police presence in that area.
The identity of the deceased has not yet been released.
Late Tuesday morning, Sparks Police responded to a "critical incident" at the Courtside Garden Apartments near 15th Street in Sparks. A Reno Police Officer told our crew on scene this incident is related to the death investigation in north Reno.
Nearby Sparks High School was placed on a precautionary code yellow lockdown.
We'll release more information as soon as it becomes available.Â
