A 16-year-old was charged Monday in First Judicial District Court with multiple alleged crimes including burglary, possession of a homemade unserialized semiautomatic firearm and accessories and drugs possession stemming from a Dec. 1, 2025 incident involving a stolen vehicle out of Lander County and vehicle burglaries in Carson City that involved three other juveniles.
Carson Now does not name juveniles who commit crimes. We had inadvertently published the wrong case and have since fixed the error. On Monday, the 16-year-old went before the Juvenile Division of the First Judicial Court in Carson City.
