  • Sheriff Jerry Allen intends to join lawsuit blocking red flag law

    Sheriff Jerry Allen intends to join lawsuit blocking red flag law

    Last week, Sheriff Jerry Allen asked Pershing County leaders to support his opposition to the state’s red flag law. He hopes to join a lawsuit blocking AB 291 that requires law enforcement to seize firearms from those considered by a judge to be possible threats to themselves or others.
    “You may see that I have joined on but I have been advised that I cannot independently sue anything in my capacity as the sheriff,” Allen told the county commission. “Although I have not officially joined, I’m sure you’ll see me there because I saw it (media) there yesterday when I went to the meeting. I was surprised when I walked into the meeting that I was a part of that. However, I think it’s more appropriate for the legislative body of the county (to respond).”     Continue this story

  • Lowry sweeps road games from South Tahoe, Dayton

    Lowry sweeps road games from South Tahoe, Dayton

    Last week’s road trip to South Tahoe and Dayton provided two completely different styles of basketball for the Lowry High School boys.
    The Buckaroos were in South Tahoe on Friday, Jan. 10, where the game was played at a quick pace up and down the floor. 
    On Saturday, Jan. 11, Lowry was in Dayton, where the game was played a snail’s pace.
    Lowry was able to adapt to both styles, beating South Tahoe 82-68 and Dayton 39-35 to improve to 7-1 in the Northern 3A and 10-4 overall.
    In the win over South Tahoe, Lowry got off to a quick start and led by double figures early in the second quarter.
    However, the Buckaroos had to change the lineup around a bit, when Kobe Stoker left in the second quarter due to an ankle injury.
    “I don’t think that kid has ever played a full four quarters at South Tahoe,” said LHS coach Chad Peters. “He has gotten hurt every time we go up there. But, he will be ready for Fallon.”     Continue this story
