Carson City, NV – The Office of the Nevada Attorney General will be hosting press events in Carson City and Las Vegas for the Special Law Enforcement Summit on School Safety.

That discussion will be focused on how school staff and law enforcement can share information to identify, report and prevent potential threats to Nevada’s schools.
WHO: In Las Vegas, Nevada Attorney General Adam Laxalt will be available to the media following the Summit along with Roland Swanson, his Chief of Investigations and a retired member of the FBI.
