Armed Militia Set Up Checkpoints To Check Residency Of People Passing Through Clark County
Congressman Steven Horsford (D-NV), has sent a letter to Clark County Sheriff Doug Gillespie asking him to investigate reports of armed militia members setting up checkpoints to verify the residency of anybody passing through.
I am writing to bring your attention to the ongoing situation in northeastern Clark County which has caused many of my constituents to fear for their safety. Residents of Bunkerville and the surrounding area have expressed concern over the continual presence of multiple out-of-state, armed militia groups that have remained in the community since the BLM halted its actions to impound the cattle of Cliven Bundy earlier this month.
My constituents have expressed concern that members of these armed militia groups have set up checkpoints where residents are required to prove they live in the area before being allowed to pass . . .
